59. I'm not so sure. I think they have alienated more people than they have
converted. My mom is a conservative Republican church lady who lives in Pinellas Park, Florida and she is horrified by what the protesters are doing and saying, especially how they've targetted the hospice workers, and the families of other people residing in the hospice. She was just about to put my grandmother in a hospice setting, that exact hospice where Mrs. Shiavo is, as a matter of fact, (she's 100 years old and fading fast) but decided not to because of what was going on there.
