When Republicans won in 94 there were a lot of conservative Democrats who switched parties. I don’t know if there is still such a thing as conservative Democrats, but maybe there will be a few of them switch parties. ...No RINOs wanted.

If he is re-elected, my guess is that Gene Taylor from Mississippi will switch.

Lieberman is the closest thing to a Republican the Dems have. Whoops, had. And he's no conservative.He became an Independent so no Dem switches are likely.

RINO’s may be switching parties after this one.

Nancy Pelosi won the Democrat majority in 2006 by recruiting dozens of "conservative" Democrats. Many of them are political opportunists who voted for things like Obamacare and Cap N Tax when it was politically expedient for them to do so. Many of them were also the first to be cut loose by the Dems when they started circling the wagons.

Some of them could probably be turned from DINO's into RINO's, though you could never trust them to switch back when the political winds blow the other way. Example: Arlen Specter.
