Maybe, but the fear prevents them from expressing as much; they regularly change their positions and messaging to match whatever the rabid hogs that make up the core of their base are baying for.

Meanwhile democrats see it as a virtue to stand up to their base. West Wing has done irreparable damage to their brains.

that because republicans will stop voting for them in a hearbeat; while democrats will also vote blue no matter who … and what.

Dems literally just lost because their base didn’t show up what are you talking about?
