You can't "win" votes that were not there in the first place. Look at the FR poll. There is 20% hardcore anti Bush/GOP posters on FR. They are NOT going to be won over. That is ok by me because it gives some spice to the place but Bush could kiss their butt in the astrodome and give them 30 minutes to draw a crowd and they still wouldnt vote for him.
Oh, how wrong you are, swami. If FR is a microcosm of the GOP and the conservative electorate, which in my experience it is above all other known microcosms, our party has a huge problem.
Because if 20% of the conservative electorate stays home or goes elsewhere, you can say hello to President Kerry.
My belief is that the attitudes of the conservative-bashers here are driving away voters George W. Bush has to have to win, and that we need to have in the fold in order to increase our numbers in the House and the Senate.
Guess y'all never heard that old saying about vinegar, sugar and bees.
It seems that the antipathy of some towards conservatives is more weighty than their concern about beating the RATs in November.
