I think the OP is referring to the (mostly women) Repubs who are more moderate and responsive to their constituents. Collins and Murkowski come to mind. They have been on the right (correct) side of the healthcare votes so far, but it is certainly a good idea to distrust them. They are still Repubs and will vote with their party on most issues.

There are a couple left, even though the Repubs have been culling their ranks of the non-extremists for decades.
