I just searched for "list of remaining rinos in congress" and I couldn't find such a list. I DID find a bunch of lists, of various sizes, entitled "6 worst", "35 who voted for Jan 6 commission", and lots of numbers and criteria in between.

But why isn't there a single, solid list? And why isn't it kept more or less up to date? It is hard to ferret out those who need to be removed if there isn't even discussion on who should - and shouldn't be on the list. Okay, I can accept that one person's RINO is another persons local hero, to some extent. But the discussion should be, at least, on going. If nothing else, having such a forum /clearinghouse would keep voters on the lookout better, and perhaps "keep a good boy from going bad". c/boy/politician/g

Ok. So here is one list where remaining politicians need to be asked what the heck they were thinking, at least. Repugs who voted for Jan 6 Committee:

Lawmakers passed the bill in a 252-175 vote, with 35 Republicans joining all Democrats in support.

The fact that 35 Republicans voted for the commission is another example of why Trump couldn’t accomplish all that he had wanted. These 35 are the definition of RINOs.

Here are the 35 Republicans who voted in favor:

Liz Cheney of Wyoming
Tom Rice of South Carolina
Dan Newhouse of Washington
Anthony Gonzalez of Ohio
Adam Kinzinger of Illinois
Fred Upton of Michigan
Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington
Peter Meijer of Michigan
John Katko of New York
David Valadao of California
Tom Reed of New York
Don Bacon of Nebraska
John Curtis of Utah
Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania
Andrew Garbarino of New York
Tony Gonzales of Texas
Dusty Johnson of South Dakota
David Joyce of Ohio
Chris Smith of New Jersey
Van Taylor of Texas
Chris Jacobs of New York
David McKinley of West Virginia
Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska
Maria Elvira Salazar of Florida
Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Iowa
Steve Womack of Arkansas
Stephanie Bice of Oklahoma
French Hill of Arkansas
Mike Simpson of Idaho
Rodney Davis of Illinois
Blake Moore of Utah
Michael Guest of Mississippi
Trey Hollingsworth of Indiana
Carlos Gimenez of Florida
Cliff Bentz of Oregon

Amazingly, Mitch McConnell opposed the commission, as did Republican leader Kevin McCarthy.

That is a good start, for RINO hunters. But it would be really nice to see the list of those who voted for Ukraine warfare aid. I bet there would be a lot of crossover.

Re: “but i know too many people older than me whom I have had short talks with that demonstrate they don;t vote withtheir brains or exercise any thought process or digest readily available information about a candidate..”
Don't get too cocky. What I said applies to Democrats and Republicans BOTH. Why, I seem to remember a whole bunch of people on this very board who voted for McCain and Romney on the really weak grounds that candidates they liked better "couldn't win." And guess what? That was the propaganda that they'd been fed coming right back up.

Umm, their decisions were pretty foolish and I hope those people are a little bit ashamed of themselves. McCain and Romney were both douchebags who ALSO couldn't win. People should vote for candidates they like, respect and perhaps agree with, not for candidates "who are better than some other scumbags."
