"Thinking a ?moderate? Republican can win the General, is a misconception that some people make."

GW Bush was a moderate and won twice. His dad was a moderate and one once.

Nixon was a moderate and won twice.

Eisenhower was a moderate and won twice.

That's just since WWII.

Both moderates and conservatives can win. It has a LOT to do with their political skills and the nature of their opponent.

My bad.

I SHOULD have said Romney is a LIBERAL Republican, and so is “reach-across-the-aisle, but they don’t reach back” John McCain.

Bush 43, was slightly right of moderate, and did a lot for the pro-life movement.
