A '''RINO''' ('''R'''epublican '''i'''n '''N'''ame '''O'''nly), also known as a '''Reform Democrat''', is a disparaging term used by immoderate Republicans or opposition Democrats to characterize an officeholder or candidate who is a member of the [[Republican Party]] but comes from a constituancy which votes Republican but may hold views outside the mainstream [[Republican Party]].  RINO's and Reform Democrats typically come from New England states where corrupt Democrat politcal machines do not allow dissent and opposition so reformers have difficulty gaining ballot access.  A similar term is '''cafeteria conservative''', for a person who picks and chooses which conservative principles to believe, as a person might choose foods in a cafeteria.<ref>[http://www.manp.org/association-spotlight/archives/james-carville-mary-matalin-he-said-she-said James Carville & Mary Matalin: He Said, She Said]</ref>
