I think he'd depress the base more than fire it up. Unless there are some unforeseen events, I think its a good bet the Rats will win control of both Houses of Congress this fall.

True. But think for a moment. If enough conservatives really get ticked off at GW, they would do what they can to fill both houses with conservatives just to offset the moderation that appears to be coming from the White House. Also, to send a message that we ARE conservative and nothing in-between is good enough.
