As stated at the blog, so far the best entry has been submitted by GuyS:

SKUNC

However, it suffers from one big drawback. SKUNC may prove too useful in describing villainous globalists all over the world who are out to subvert their sovereign nations.

That would mean we still need a special new acronym that more readily describes subversive traitors of the USA who hide out in the GOP.

So the contest is still open.

It is hoped that FReepers will spread the word.

It's not a lot of money, now at $125. But surely many FReepers wouldn't mind having fun rebranding the traitors to America and conservatives and earning some money in the process.

How about RebubliCON meaning we are conned into believing they are really republican when they get to DC and act like the other party.

I thought the term “Cocktail Party” covered it pretty well. It covers everything from CHarlie Crist to Nelson Rockefeller and Lincoln Chafee.

How about just resurrecting the name “mugwumps” from the Grover Cleveland days.

A mugwump is a republican that acts like a democrat.

CINO-Conservative In Name Only
RepublicRAT, as in crats and rats

[MuttTheHoople]

Not an acronym, but “Vichy Republicans” should suffice.

Call a Spade a Spade - RINO = Democrat = Communist.

I agree that the “RINO” label is stale and meaningless from overuse and misuse. It’s got to where it’s like being called a “racist” - - brings nothing but yawns and eyerolls anymore.

Forget the acronym thing - - just call them “squishes”. “Moderate” Republicans run like scared bunny rabbits from the scumbag Democrat “mainstream” newsrooms (yes, even still in 2011) and tend to do their pandering from the “middle of the road”. That’s where things get squished.
Hence, these “moderate” Republicans are “squishes”.

Anyway, that’s what I’ve taken to calling them.

Just call them what they are without getting gross or silly. They are 80-20 or 60-40 or in some bad cases 50-50 Pubbies.

These characters are not all created equal, and Rino was never an accurate acronym. look at the fiscal matters alone and they are not RINO.

Ditch RINO,it is totally inaccurate, and give Pubbies like Graham or Collins,Snow,and Murkowski the Percentages where they actually vote along with the pubbie Platform.

I am sure Freepers can come up with the right numbers accurately portraying those that are constantly straying afar.

RINO still works IMO, but in my
mind I consider same to be
professional politicians OR if you please

GOP PP’s.

Great fun - and you can give the
