If your husband uses the same logic you did in your last vanity, which was yanked, he must be a democrat.
"Sir, please spare me from the loons."
and a democrat is going to do better.
Work for change in 08 and a better candidate. Heck maybe run yourself.
My husband has been approached about running. He is thinking about it for 08.
My main point is a RINO is better than a dem any day.
Of course you are right on this. RINOs will vote for at least SOME of the things we support, while the dims will vote against EVERYTHING that we value.
"Something" is better than "nothing".

I absolutely disagree! A RINO is a cancer within that some, like you, will keep in no matter what. He makes the party look bad by the judgment he uses, and the media use them as God-like figures in order to make the rest within our party look backward. Example: John McCain is a hero to the media, but a thorn in the side of the party. Another example: Arlen Spector was the chief distractor within our party during judicial nominees, yet a hero within the media. Other examples are Lincoln Chafee, Bob and Elizabeth Dole, and Olympia Snowe.
Another reason RINO's are worse than Democrats is that Democrats, during campaigns and debates, use the RINO's words and lack of support for conservatism against other conservatives and the media eats it up. An example of this is when a RINO speaks out against the war. The media headlines the next day are something like, "Growing number of Republicans speak out against the war, causing split within the hawkish party!"
And, the greatest example of the damage done by RINO's is today's political climate. Republicans stand to lose harshly due to the amount of spineless RINO's representing us in the Senate and Presidency. When faced with the choice of getting a store-brand or the name brand for the same price, most people will pick the name brand. Likewise, when faced with a democrat-lite or a true democrat that speaks from his heart, the average voter will pick the true thing. That's why Bush's numbers are still dismal and will remain dismal.
Why does the name "Bloomberg" come to mind?
"My main point is a RINO is better than a dem any day. "
By what measure? You have no idea if someone with no core principles is going to support conservative principles, in fact, there is every reason to believe they will not.
A RINO, a compassionate conservative, a big government republican is every bit as destructive to conservative ideals as a democrat. Do you really think you can count on a RINO for anything? if so, why?
There is nothing more important than reining in the size, scope of government as measured in spending. As it stands now, republicans have not given conservatives a reason to vote for them. That is not anyone's fault but republicans.
Don't blame conservatives if republicans lose the house, blame the out-of-control spending and growth of government that now makes republicans and democrats virtually indistinguishable on these issues.
