Comment by Sandra on January 5, 2011 at 11:46pm: I am hopeful this is one who is NOT a RINO... You can bet some got in and you can bet some are now governors too. The NWO has a game plan and many are and will follow it. Let us not forget Soros is running this country... I pray this good man is not caught up in the bad things.
