Republican Voters: Defeat them or Convert them? [View All]

[rucky]

Catch 22, here. We hate republicans, but we get suspicious of candidates who attract republican voters. I've always argued that most Republican voters are voting against their best interest, and now some of them are coming around (thanks, Bush). Do we welcome them - even if it means influence on the party that's coming from the right, or do we give them the finger and whoop their butts with the numbers we have?

Either way, Republicans are toast. It's just a matter of style & strategy for winning this election, balanced with concerns about the future direction of the Democratic party.
