Quite a few RMSPs took it in the shorts, some of the gals have survived but not after some delay in doing the vote totes and one or two still may face a mandatory recount due the small margin of victory.
The problem is that more RINOs are waiting in the wings.
RMSP?
Leach was defeated.
Don't they use the horn of RINO's for an aphrodesiac? ;-)
Many of them are nothing more than Progressives masquerading as Republicans, imo.
keyword RMSP
Rick Santorum belongs on the tragic defeat list. A great conservative senator who made one mistake.
Funny they don't mention J.D. Hayworth.
We took Schwarz out in the primary and replaced him with a conservative.
No centrists, no majority ever again. We'd better hope some RINOs can win in those marginal districts in 2008.
Whoever wrote this is delusional in the implication that republicans cannot survive without conservatives (small 'c' intentional), when in fact, the opposite is certainly more true.
Keep thinking this way. Those who do are beginning to sound like all the apologists for Communism when they tried to explain it's failures. How many of you remember this argument:
"Well, of course Communism is a viable system, it's just that we haven't found the right Communists to run it all yet..."
Substitute "Consrvative" for "Communist" and that pretty much sums up the tone on FR, amongst the "REAL" conservatives (i.e. those who can't define conservatism, and can't tell you how a republic is supposed to operate, except that they know they don't like the way this one works, and who believe that what's good for Pastor Bob is good enough for them!), and the "Conservative" think tanks/organizations ever since Nov 7, 2006.
Snowe was re-elected not Collins. Snowe, running against
a moonbat's moonbat won with over 70% of the vote. Collins does not run until 2010 or 2012
So these candidates that lost were true Republicans.
RINO should be attached to people like Tancredo who is truly just a Republican in name only since he is conservative, wants a smaller government, and won't kowtow to big business' wish for exploitable illegal labor.
Funny they don't mention J.D. Hayworth.

Yeah, it was -- one of the few real Americans left in the Congress....a major loss.
Agreed. I may be in the minority here, but thinking that we can have a Republican majority without any 'RINO' is delusional.
I call them the Main Street Garbage.

True. The terms Republican and Conservative are mutually exclusive in MANY cases. As this whole tragedy brought to a head....maybe things had to get bad, before they get better?
Oh B.S.! No Rinos, NO DEFEAT! The reason why Repubs lost is exactly because of the rino factor. kowtowing to DBM/dems, putting factions together to defeat conservative ideas. All rinos need to be squarely defeated or move to the ass party and repubs need to either condone a conservative agenda and IMPLEMENT it, or stay in the minority.
