Please. Let’s surprise everyone and be sane for a change.
There is a common line of thought indicating that “it is better to elect a RINO who stands a chance of getting elected, than a genuine conservative who does not.”
Notwithstanding the advantage this has in control of Congressional Committees, it must be said that the liberal policies advocated by Arlen Specter, Lincoln Chafee, Olympia Snowe, Richard Riordan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and others, have done much to whittle away fiscal and social conservatism as a whole. Without the RINO influence, perhaps the 1994 Revolution would have been quite larger?
In any event, Scott Brown is a RINO just like the aforementioned politicos, though I know it is not a surprise to many on FreeRepublic.
