There is a common thread between the RINO defections and the comments here that run along the lines of “I was going to vote for McCain, but Palin turned me off.” Both are done by moles who pretend to be Republicans but ultimately just want to try and influence the party in the wrong direction.

I completely agree with Ardsgaine, who said

This is the reason for the Republican collapse in a nutshell: Rockefeller Republicans want to compromise with socialism, while religious conservatives want to ignore capitalism in order to focus on their religious agenda.

That’s it. Two segments of the party that were too busy pursuing their own ideas to reach a consensus on what vision to offer the country.
