Why is it, when a candidate abandons some of his base, the base is then blamed for abandoning him?

Because we are just supposed to be good sheep and just keep pulling the "R" lever no matter how bad they get.

Jim Ross Nussle was trying to be too cute by halves when he filled out that stupid questionaire.

He was trying to indicate that he would sign a bill that would only outlaw abortions in the second the third trimesters, except in cases of rape or incest or if the mother's life is in danger.

Meanwhile, in the questionaire, he indicated that aboritions should be legal in the first trimester. But of course his campaign insists that he is personally against first trimester abortions.

I'm a GOP county co-chair. I am going to demand a clarification of his position. My continued support will be in direct proportion to his clarity. I cannot support a candidate who would allow most aboritions but outlaw only the vast minority. Maybe he's just be pragmatic, maybe he's showing his true colors.

I wonder what VanderPlaats is thinking about this?
