"I'm 110 percent in favor of ridding the GOP of every single RINO,"

How come I can count the DINO's on one finger (Zell Miller), but there are scores of RINO's?
Why don't they just run as Dems in the first darned place?
I guess we should give out annual "Jumpin' Jeffords" awards, but we'd run out of awards pretty quick.

Because they would have no chance in Hades of winning in a conservative area. So they fraudulently pass themselves off as conservative to win office and promote their liberal agendas against the will of the people they said they would represent.

These guys have a great idea, I hope they have alot of success with it. The Republican Party does need to set standards for it's candidates.

I think we have RINOs and they don't have many DINOs because of a fundamental difference in our moral/ethical makeup. It's almost definition. Not necessarily Democrat vs. Republican, but more of a conservative vs. liberal/moderate thing: WE MEAN WHAT WE SAY, AND WE DON'T CHANGE WHAT WE BELIEVE TO FIT THE MOMENT.

They don't run as dems because they are back-stabbers. I remember Rush crowing about all the dems who were switching to the repub party. He couldn't even figure out that they were not changing their colors, only their party.

The reason they run on the Right side is that the money comes from the Right. Leftists can feel for the poor a lot better if they have money themselves.
