But the way to reverse that is NOT to name-call the protesters. You will only be encouraging them to leave the Republican Party altogether.

What you do with these 'protestors' is you treat them like the children they are. You stick 'em in the corner, tell 'em to shut up and deny them the attention they crave. After a period of time they'll show up for dinner. They always do.

Your "reasoning" is exactly the thing that is coming close to convincing me to NOT show up in the polling place this November.

The ironic thing is, if many conservatives react the same way, you'll blame US for President Bush' loss, if he loses, rather than yourself. You'll never see that you, and others like you, are a significant part of the reason for this exodus.

I don't want him to lose, but I do want him to back off on certain non-conservative policies and positions. But because you tend to ascribe bad motives to people who disagree with you, you'll never see that.

You must have a lot of time standing in the corner facing the wall.

You have a counterintuitive definition of "always:"
33% of the Presidential elections since 1990.

Really? Like they showed up for Dole? My memory is they didn't show up for dinner again until the Party went back to the right, Newt, Contract With America, you know, all that stuff.
