WHO IS THE “RINO” OF THE YEAR FOR 2011?

by Rick Olson

With 2011 drawing to a close We here at GraniteGROK have made some attempt to detail who we think are the Republicans in Name Only. Some choices were a literal “no-brainer” while other choices were not so clear cut and dry. Perhaps we got it right, while other times we got it wrong. Only history and voting records can judge.

Grok Readers have an opportunity to weigh in and choose the one who will be labelled RINO of the Year for 2011. To review the RINO Reports simply click here.

    Down-town Julie Brown – she even has the moon-bat hat to go with the label.

    I was going to write in Caroline Gargas but you got her on the ballot and she did do the right non-RINO thing and voted to overide Lynch’s right to work veto so when in doubt, go with the gal in the hat…Julie Brown gets my vote.

    In western NH, Rep. Susan Emerson.  In eastern NH, well, it could be a lot of people.  In the lakes region, I think Mitt Romney is the most qualified candidate.

    @jackieaxe:disqus I am leaning in that direction personally (Julie “The Mad Hatter” Brown)….Were it not for Ken Gould’s resignation, he would take the prize hands down.

    Here’s a puzzler: lead or mercury on that Mad Hat?
