People said the same thing about a guy named Reagan.
Here's the way the RINO's think:
1) Anyone except for the RINO is "unelectable"
2) If liberals criticize the RINO, the RINO must "moderate" his positions
3) If conservatives criticize the RINO, they are extremists, nutcases, losers, etc....
4) Conservatives are good to have around during the campaign since they do all the "leg work" (such as making signs, working phone banks, etc....) but should shut up after the election.
But you see, people LIKED Reagan.
