Most of that crowd already were going to vote Libertarian, Reform, Constitution, or some other fringe party, or they were going to stay home. They are the perpetually disgruntled types who, between elections, talk a good game about being "real" conservatives, but who never vote for anyone with a real shot at winning any election. So they are always on the outside looking in, with no influence or seat at the table of power. And they become even more disgruntled. So the cycle repeats. I gave up on these types long ago.
Agreed. The consistently disaffected who never manage to vote Republican are contemptible dopes.
