"President Obama told the Republican lawmakers that "you can't just

He's not relevant. His 'base' are not swing voters. They'll vote
Republican no matter what.

The Obama comment was aimed at the moderates.

You may be able to say that they will *NOT* vote Liberal, but as we saw
with Ross Perot "At one point in June, Perot led the polls with 39%
(versus 31% for Bush and 25% for Clinton). " They may vote in other
directions.

There are far more conservatives than Moderates in the Republican
Party...which btw..is no longer considered to be Conservative by its
members.

They are in the midst of an identity crisis. The GOP has to go back to
its conservative grass roots, or lose most of its membership

The future of the GOP is decidely interesting
