Well, If you don't want my vote

Many times and many places by many different people around the net I have been told by Republicans "we don't want your kind".
Is that any way to win elections? It seems the stupid party wants 100% support or none. The evil party is not near so picky.
The evil party says "we don't agree with you on X, Y, or Z but since you agree with us on Q vote for us".
The stupid party treats politics like it was a church. Agree with all the major points of doctrine or find a different church. The evil party treats politics like it was a nightclub - we have 4 bands tonight, come for the one you like. We will be glad to have you.
This has been going on for so long (the last 7 years) that I have decided to give up on the Republicans. I know of others who have come to similar conclusions. I believe we are headed over the cliff because Republicans don't have any idea about making alliances. They want converts not allies. I'm not converting.
