well, you do need 50% + 1. By some definition, that’s gotta include “moderates.” the question is, do you alter you arguments to match their propagandized points of view, or do you convince them to move your way . Obviously, FReepers choose the latter course.
As well as Ronald Reagan and pre-1995 Newt Gingrich.
The age old aregument of moving to the center is bogus. Sarah Palin is proving that argument wrong as we speak.
...though they should.
