No offense intended, but RINO is such a dumb term. It seeks to belittle those who depart from the party line for their own reasons. We don't elect these men and women as Republicans and Democrats, we elect individuals who happen to be Republicans and Democrats. Republicans are not conservative (and haven't been since Goldwater) and Democrats aren't liberal (and haven't really been ever). Each party's platform consists of a hodgepodge of values and agendas which they think is best calculated to convince voters to keep them in power.
RINO/DINO are terms which to me really smack of anti-intellectualism.
