RINOS don't win here. Neither Zschau, Huffington, nor Campbell ran a decent race. There are ways to bring new constituencies into the Republican column for Simon other than sacrificing on principles. If you don't understand that, you had best start learning how to apply those principles or at least show a little more faith in them.
BTW, my family has lived here five generations.
Who said anything about sacrificing principles or electing RINOs? Stopping the intra-party squabbling and building a winning coalition is my point. If YOU can't understand THAT, then you don't understand politics.
