Idc what wording you use, which governors are the most conservative Democrats and most liberal Republicans.

GOP: Linda Lingle
DEM: Kathleen Blanco or Joe Manchin? (pro-life)

Bredesen (TN) had a more favorable rating among Republicans than Democrats.

Douglas (VT) is pretty liberal.

ACU lists Lingle as the #10 Liberal Governor, Douglas isn't on the list.  Doesn't that show something?

Within the context of West Virginia politics, what on earth does that have to do with anything?

How can the ACU actually rank something like that among Governors?  It seems like things would swing around wildly, considering how non-partisan the administration of some Governors is.

Idc what wording you use, which governors are the most conservative Democrats and most liberal Republicans.

GOP: Linda Lingle
DEM: Kathleen Blanco or Joe Manchin? (pro-life)

The fact that you think being a pro-life Democrat automatically makes you a DINO shows what a misinformed 15 year-old you are.  Either you listen to too much talk radio, or you've still got a lot to learn.

"What a misiniformed person you are" would have sufficed,

Anyway, I don't know a lot about governors so I can't make a real pick, but I will say I think most governors are DINOs and RINOs since they are usually more affiliated with their states than their national parties.

I can't think of any DINO or RINO Governors.  Governors like Jodi Rell and Linda Lingle are true Republicans who are the shining stars of the Republican Party.  Phil Bredesen may have higher approvals from Republicans than Democrats, but that hasn't stopped him from campaigning for continuing the Democratic culture of corruption in our state legislature.

That's why I have a question mark, I'm just saying that those stances MIGHT put them as the biggest DINO governors.

It's actually Human Events using ACU scores:

How does being liberal not make one a true Republican?

If you are too liberal, you don't subscribe the beliefs of the Republican party, and therefore are not a Republican.  Jodi Rell doesn't quite meet that.  If you are against the war and did not vote for George W. Bush (Chafee) you are not a Republican.

Has it ever occured to you that YOU may be the one who isn't a Republican.  Seriously... you're what they have a Constitution Party for.

Apparently the entire Connecticut and probably the entire Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, even the Ohio, New Mexico, and Florida Republican Parties disagree with you on what a Republican really is.  That's a lot of fake Republicans.

It's ok I got the pamphlet -down gets to decide what the definition of not only a republican, but also a christian... probably an American to? Ok can I ask you if you're black but don't like rap... are you still black?
