You misunderestimastand.
Buchanan and Delay aren't going to cost the R's anything. My point is, Boxer and Dean and Kerry are going to cost the D's, big time. For some reason, the inclusion of Delay seems to get out the R votes, while a move to a more extreme position will not help Ds. R's still occupy a large middle portion, while also encompassing the Buchanuts. D's are simply narrowing their tent.
And, no, it isn't the serenity that allows that outlook. It's the drugs.
