Rove is just as much a rino as snowe and collins. He just shows it differently.

Did we have any real spending cuts in the 8 years of Bush?
No Child Left Behind - not conservative. Expansion of Medicare - not conservative. That’s all RINO.

I’m not pro Snowe. If she’s the Republican nominee, I’m not voting for her. And I’m in Maine. She could win as an Independent if she decides to go that route early enough.

I agree as long as I get to pick the RINO’s

“Those people aren’t Conservatives.”

I do believe that. I’m not sure I would know how to use their tactics though.

As for Romney, most of the people I know aren’t political junkies and they seem confused when I say Romney is not a conservative. But they know without realizing they know, because they don’t like him and won’t vote for him, not because he’s a Mormon, but because of romneycare. I’m not sure he can overcome that one.

Perhaps, but I will enjoy mocking him. Others can use Romneycare type arguments. I’ll mention the gay marriage if I have to talk policy, but I’ll focus on just mocking him. And then say that Americans won’t vote for someone who is mocked.

That’s their little trick. Damage, and then say, oh, he’s damaged.

How many wives does Romney have, anyway? I’ve seen Big Love.

Let’s face it; those were weak candidates. Better candidates could be found who were true conservatives but who would have won. Learn from this and do a better job of thinking it through and finding candidates next time.

You probably have a talent for it - I’m not sure I would make any sense. For example, I’m probably the only one on FR to not know what the “magic underwear” is. :-)

It’s still early yet. I personally like to keep it to issues, but Roves candidates deserve a thorough mock based on their background if it’s at all there to be found.

If anything from Romney’s background can lead anybody to believe that what is being said is true, than it’s true.

For instance, if Romney said 15 years ago that he “dabbled in witchcraft when he was in high school, he “is” a witch.

Romney believes that his undergarments contain magic powers. I think we need to ask him if he thinks his underwear enables him to fly.

If Rove’s candidates had any sense they would run fast and far from Rove.

They have either betrayed or voluntarily left the coalition. Reciprocity requires that we return the favor, and refuse to vote for RINOs in any election. When they tell you why that’s such a bad strategy, ask them why they’ve been using it themselves.

Definitely. Especially those who aren’t yet tied to Rove. Romney is.

Let me make it easy for you:

If you do not fully support and embrace traditional American constitutional conservative values and principles and at least support the official pro-life, pro-family, pro-Liberty, small government, strong defense Republican party platform, you are by definition a RINO and are basically worthless to our cause, especially if you bad mouth or run down our endorsed constitutional conservative candidates!!

RINOs dilute the message, weaken the cause, embolden and strength the ENEMY WITHIN!!

Free Republic is an exclusive club for Constitutional Conservatives for God, Family, Country, Life and Liberty!!

All others need not apply.

I’ve given everyone fair warning. There will be no support for Romney on FR. Even if I have to boot every last RomneyBot from our forum. If Romney somehow becomes the nominee, FR will probably become a ghost town because I will run full time video ads telling the truth about his abortionist/statist story and they’ll be his own words straight from his horse’s ass!

IMO O’Donnell was hurt earlier and more severely by the RINO effect than was Angle. Angle was beat by fraud and a Massive Union ground game. I don’t know why Angle did not contest the election. If she doesn’t it will stand just as if the thing was on the up and up.

Thank you Jim! Finally the answer that has been listed on this site for years. I read that when I first signed up and thought finally someone who has really defined what we should cohesively stand for. The lack of an answer from anyone before Jim had to do it is indicative of the lack of understanding that many have of what we really stand for. I would suggest that this list should be somehow included at the top of every forum page for those who do not search through the site and find it. It gives a reference point for determination.

American constitutional conservative values and principles and at least support the official pro-life, pro-family, pro-Liberty, small government, strong defense Republican party platform.

Again, thanks Jim!

Jim you are going to need to start zotting them any day, the 2012 campaign has basically begun and the Romneybots are the worst of the worst.

Romneycare is the prototype for Obamacare and the whole world needs to know that Romney is an leftist abortionist who forced socialized medicine and homosexual marriage on America.

Romney has Romneycare cooties. As bad as that has worked out in MA and with the opposition to Obamacare, Romney has no chance. He may still try but I don’t see how he gets it.

That is great. I have no idea if Palin will run. I’d like to see her run. I think it would be easy for her to win the nomination.

Actually, the revolution started in Philadelphia in October 1773, with the adoption of 8 resolutions. Bostonians then adopted them, had their Tea Party and Philadelphia had their Tea Party on December 27, 1773.
