You might not believe it, but I really AM a registered republican. In Kansas, you either elect RWNJ's like Sam Brownback, or you can try to put a moderate (what you call a RINO) in office. Because the elections are determined in the GOP primary.....although this past year, several democrats got elected because the far right idiots were bankrupting the state by giving tax breaks to anybody who was an LLC a tax break to zero. Leaving the middle class to make up the shortfall because they sure as hell weren't creating enough jobs to cover those cuts. But....a true republican is the one who will believe, no matter how many times you try to tell them otherwise, that three minus two equals five.
