Another RINO Punch to the Conservative Gut
This past decade has been a trying time for conservatives. We put our heart and soul into the “Republican Revolution” with the hopes of smaller government, lower taxes, less spending, and policies that reflect conservative principles. But as the decade wore on, we saw that the party we supported had lost its way. It was spending, spending, and spending. It was supporting big-government entitlements. It was pushing programs such as amnesty that run counter to conservatism.
We fell hard enough and fast enough so that, despite being a center-right country, Americans elected a left wing Congress and a radical president. Now, we are paying the price, but Americans are also rallying to the conservative ideals that are part of who we are. The Tea Party movement is all about those simple conservative beliefs, and the movement has already changed policy and won elections. The Republican Party was hearing the message and standing against Obama’s agenda. Then, along comes Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, who delivers another RINO punch to the conservative gut.
