At the grass roots level, Republican Party activists are constantly fed a message that party unity must be maintained. But the reality is, the “establishment” forces in the party don’t believe any of that malarkey. They are scared to death of TEA Party and liberty-minded, traditional conservatives because that segment of the Republican Party seeks honest reform that would diminish the power of the corrupt RINO establishment – and yes, when it comes to people like “punch the TEA Party in the nose” Senator Mitch McConnell, warmongering neocon Senator John McCain, and the theatrical do nothing to upset the status-quo House Speaker John Boehner, the term RINO fits perfectly.
Now, the Republican establishment is looking to repeat in Georgia what happened in the Mississippi primary. Erick Erickson reports in RedState.com:
Jody Hice, the undisputed conservative in the race to replace Congressman Paul Broun, is . . . well . . . a conservative. His opponent, Mike Collins, is the son of a congressman who goes around the district talking about what friends he is with various House committee chairmen in DC, etc.
In an organized effort, an outside group has begun mailing Democrats absentee ballot applications. The mail piece explains to Democrats that there is no chance a Democrat will win in the district (true, Paul Broun won it several times) and the only way to stop conservatives from winning is to support Mike Collins.
Did you know that the Republican Party spent more money fighting Republican primary candidates during the first quarter than money spent against Democrats? These establishment dinosaurs have the nerve to lecture reformers about party division? God forbid they permit competition in a free market of ideas and let Republican voters decide which candidates offer the best ideas.

Brilliant!
No, and conversely; Republican isn’t the same thing as RINO.
More often then not, it is.
I am not a broken glass Republican. I am a Conservative and one that's been betrayed and used by the GOPe.
It can still be done. It’s a message that young people have never heard.
And while we're at it; Republican isn’t the same thing as GOPe.
You have a nice day.
