Even if the term RINO hadn't already been widely in use for years, would it really be newsworthy? No. Therefore I have to assume your actual motive for posting the article was to sneak in a dig at republicans with doom and gloom predictions of a party collapse, continuing your long history of partisan flamebaiting.
So knock it off.

Is it tropes you hate?
Stop being a jackass and just post those articles on a blog like everyone else. I come to Evageeks to get away from politics.

I sleepwalk really badly. I've been known to make breakfast at 2:00 AM...sawing logs. I've not texted anyone, before, but I have woken up to find my face in a plate of stew.
On that topic, Florida recently passed the texting and driving law.

It is never over... not as long as those lame ducks and lamer asshat baby boomers are still in positions of power, we normal citizens will not know peace of mind.

Part of the reason I moved to Texas was cheaper cost of living.
Cheaper cost of living is nice, but I can't stand the climate or the people down here, so that's basically negated from my perspective.
