Hmmmmm......... WHAT A CONCEPT !!!
We need to come up with a way to elect presidents that plays down the middle the whole time.
These "base" folks get way too much of a voice, and the two bases keep spreading further apart.

The "base" is about 35% of the Country on each side. It's the other 30% who really matter in these things.

I think it was that way 20-30 years ago. Now it's 45-45-10. It's enough that national campaigns focus on turning out the base more than trying to appeal to the middle. There's no incentive for a media outlet to play to the 10% either.

Yeah, except that it's not to the rabid Lefties who are outraged over it. The best kind of damage is the self-inflicted kind.
