/* RINO */
::It's based on political positions, not party offices. It's well known that GOP leaders are far more liberal than the party base (and the same is true with the UK Tories, where most MPs voted "remain" while the party base voted "leave"). --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 15:30, 16 April 2018 (EDT)
:::Technically, I disagree on what you call a "party base". RINOs are dependent upon crossover votes, making a "constituent base" different from other elected members. A RINO's "party base" is thin. Again, its more a reflection of the district constituent base than the ideology of the office holder.

::::The GOP base is regular voters who are solid conservative Republicans -- the ones who consistently vote GOP -- and RINOs are still significantly more liberal than that base. The fact that RINOs have a different base than conservative Republican elected officials illustrates this, and they have different bases because of their ideologies. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 16:51, 16 April 2018 (EDT)
