It's not the ideologues who will decide the next election!

Actually, you are wrong for two reasons.

1. If the ideologues stay home, the other guy wins.
2. In my state, most of the middle owns a gun, carries a union card, and lives in places like Macomb or Monroe County. If they see Bush turn anti-gun or raise taxes, they will vote for the union label.
