Well Republicans supported the RINOS because it was said we needed them to for control of the House or Senate. Well we lost that control in 2006 in no small part to the way the RINOS voted.
. In effect the long run support for the RINOS has been a loss. Time to write their seats off or make a much bigger effort to replace them in primaries. Also there should be a mechanism to kick them out of the party by a majority vote. They could keep their seat but the would no longer be treated as Republicans and could kiss their committee seats good bye.

How can that would leave the Democrats at 59 seats and the Republicans in pretty much the same situation of occasional filibustering.Meanwhile, some other canada goosewho will be helpful on some filibusters but not many.) The only race where I disagree with him is Norm Coleman in Minnesota. I wouldn't guarantee a Coleman loss, but I think his chances are weaker than Gordon Smith's in Oregon. So if I'm right and John Sununu doesn't pull off an upset,
