Assume for a moment that some of the Republicans are actually closet Democrats. Would you still feel the same?

No. If we know they are closet Dems certainly no. Hopefully we find out. If they are known Rinos that can be persuaded one way or the other, I will take them for now. Then give them a chance to prove themselves among the whole pack. If they still go the Dem way, then bye bye.

I am talking about voting in all that we can find into both Houses, be it 30% conservatives, 7o% ‘Rinos’, or 70% conservatives, 30 Rinos. Then work on them. We certainly can’t work on the Dems, can we?

Conservatives are not “issues” voters. You are either Conservative or you are not.

You can be pro-life, against gay marriage, fiscally responsible, a church going, lifelong member of the NRA who home schools your kids. But if you believe in immigration reform, you are a liberal.

Politicians need votes to win. If we don’t vote for them because of a single issue, the only place to get that vote is move to the left. Once there, they now have to listen to that constituency. Now they vote with Democrats more and more because thats their new voting block, and in 3 or 4 terms, the conversion to RINO is complete.

The same reason we are losing elections is the same reason rats are winning elections. They see the forest from the trees. We look at the tree, cut it down then wonder why the forest is burning.

The rats don’t play fair. We know that, they know that and they do not care because they know we have a document and laws that we abide by. And they telegraph that they will use it against us. They taunt us, goad us into saying and doing things that are then held against us in the press. They even tell us what it will take to change things and still we do nothing.

Want to change things? Take control of the senate and then work to transition young Conservatives into retiring RINO seats. Easiest way to keep RINO’s in the senate is to go after them hard. It’s like pissing off a stubborn grandfather.

Right or wrong, that’s how it is. Vote, stay home is your choice.

Looking at their [in]action on all of their party-planks I don't think that's a bad assumption.
