DeWine Nominated for RINO of the Year

Check this out from the diaries section of RedState.org.
I am prepared to nominate Senator Dewine for RINO (republican in name only) of the year. Wednesday's vote on the ANWR provision of the budget reconciliation bill is just the latest political gaffe by Senator Dewine. In the midst of a political crisis for the Ohio Republican Party, Senator Dewine, who is up for re-election in 2006, has apparently decided to bolster his credentials as a moderate to win votes in the upcoming general election. If recent events in Ohio are any indication, Senator Dewine could be in trouble.
The writer makes a pretty good case for DeWine to be awarded this dubious honor...

Mark's Remarks


I don't know. I would put in a strong recommendation for Senator McCain. I mean, a man who doesn't want us to even use the comfy chair is definately RINO potential. But, Mikey boy is a sad sack of flesh, so he will suffice.

DISCLOSURE: I am NOT the blog administrator for Bill Pierce, but I have been known to read it and am reading Bill's book.
