RINOs are often Republican only to the extent it serves their own interests, and will abandon conservative principles as soon as it is in their own political interests to do so.  RINOs often provide support for raising [[tax]]es, [[abortion]] as [[Pro-choice|a "right"]], [[homosexual rights|homosexual "rights"]] and [[gun control]].  Some RINOs have connections with [[Planned Parenthood]] or corporations that support goals of [[population control]]; other RINOs pay lip service to [[pro-life]] values while in practice not advancing those values. Examples include [[John Kasich]] and [[Chris Christie]].

Another common brand of RINOs appears to be somewhat conservative on social and fiscal policy, but supports unrestricted [[immigration]] and [[open borders]] policies, usually in an attempt to pander to Hispanics and Asians who they claim are socially conservative. These groups continue to vote [[Democrat]] in large numbers anyway despite the pandering. They also tend to support [[neoconservative]] foreign policy. Examples include [[Jeb Bush]], [[Nikki Haley]], [[Jeff Flake]], [[Lindsey Graham]], [[Dan Crenshaw]] and [[Marco Rubio]].

RINOs often confuse [[jingoism]] for [[patriotism]] and support [[neoconservative]] [[foreign policy]], [[perpetual war]]s, and the [[military industrial complex]] at the expense of the American people. Examples include [[Lindsey Graham]], [[Nikki Haley]], [[Jeb Bush]], [[Dan Crenshaw]], [[Jeff Flake]] and [[Marco Rubio]].

[[Double standard]]s by RINOs are common: a birther comment by [[Romney]] during his campaign was supposedly a "nothing", but [[Todd Akin]]'s [[pro-life]] comment would somehow "absolutely" cost RINOs control of the [[U.S. Senate]]!<ref>http://content.usatoday.com/communities/onpolitics/post/2012/08/todd-akin-rape-missouri-senate-race-reince-priebus-/1#.UDpUhNZlQ7s</ref>
