As Townhall's resident RINO, I generally try to tamp down the RINO-huntin' impulses of some fellow conservatives. Scott Brown is about as good as we're going to get in a place like Massachusetts.

Republicans need to net four seats to win back the Senate in 2012, so the notion of dislodging a long-serving, "safe" Republican incumbent typically gives me heartburn. But in Indiana, Sen.

don't ignore some ominous things: e.g., 1) even though it's 'legal' to carry a weapon in CA you will be arrested by police in San Jose, CA., with no explanation of this; 2)in CA alone, the last 6 elections have had major election decisions overturned by our courts and the Supreme Court has refused to address this; 3) In at least 2 election results conservatives conceded bEFORE challenges were placed as to the credibility of miraculously found votes that suddenly overturned conservative wins, ala Frankens notorious cache of found votes in the trunk of a car; 4) there has been little to no crackdown on dead, imprisoned and illegal votes and continued disqualification of military absentee votes.5)450 MILLION rubber bullets ordered by HOMELAND
