"At leat five of the RINOs will vote with the 'Rats against any judge who can be proven to be conservative."

True. And the republican party will still throw its full weight into getting all of them reelected. And when their general elections come up, you will say "vote for them, otherwise where ya' gonna go?".

It sound like you've decided this is as good as it gets and are willing to accept whatever the pubs do.

I agree this may be as good as it gets, but that doesn't make me any happier.
