Ok. That sounds rather ...dismissive? It'll be too bad for ALL of us if we can't get our message of "no more RINOs" out... and more importantly, get it understood.
Methinks in most cases... gentle persuasion, but with a sense of urgency, coupled with logic and reason works better than outright dismissal.
I'm thinking of my mother as a prime example. If she were posting here and trying to convey her thoughts, some of you guys would eat her up and spit her out due to her inability to freep at 'expert level'. My mom's been a conservative Republican her whole life but has never posted on a forum of any kind. I don't know the truth behind this poster, as has been claimed by others here, but if she were my mom, I'd want her treated by "like-minded conservatives" a bit nicer. With patience, not leftie-like intolerance. We are, after all, NOT despicable leftists.
Yeah, we're mad and we're not gonna take it any more. But let's not take it out on a potential voter for our side.
Other than that, I agree.
Dismissive? I was saying it would be if she cannot understand the implications, yes. Oh, I agree, we need everyone we can get on board. No argument there. But I've been through 3 days of this with her and a few others of like beliefs. I'm a pragmatic person. I have serious doubts about her ever getting on the bandwagon. And I'm not afraid of saying so.
Perhaps these aren't your ways. That's fine. But there comes a time, after so many back-and-forths, that one becomes cynical, and says heck, let's get on with things.
