At this point, you probably ought to invent another term to replace RINO -- because generally, it is not at all clear what the GOP stands for, i.e. if it is anything 'conservative' at all, or how they purport to distinguish themselves from Democrats -- it appears that a majority of Republicans are RINOs (as that term is commonly understood) -- the GOP exists mostly to provide the illusion of choice.
