Over the last 40 years anyone deemed insufficiently conservative, anyone who strayed too far from the Party Line, anyone who would trade horses with Democrats to get things done, was branded a "RINO" and was primaried. Primaries where the biggest turnout was by the most obsessive.

Not all were unseated, but the ones who survived were chastened. And even those, over time, died or retired, and were replaced with more Conservatively Correct successors.
