See PEP 1. The PEP champion is obliged to integrate feedback into the PEP, to avoid repeated discussions. If the PEP champion is unresponsive, I think that ownership should be transferred to a new champion, although PEP 1 doesn't explain how this should happen. Historically, champions who lost interest were always willing to transfer ownership. If the champion merely records negative feedback without actually changing the proposal, you can come up with a counter-proposal, as a separate PEP. For example, I wrote PEP 244 to counter PEP 236. Clearly, one of them will get rejected eventually in favor of the other.
