170. That's why it's called compromise!!!
I never said anyone needed to kow-tow to the moderates. That can't be done any more than moving too far left.

What I said was the word COMPROMISE!!!! If you expect to agree with a candidate 100% of the time, you will be very disappointed in every candidate. You see, it is we who must compromise as well. "OK, I agree with that person on this, this, and this. I don't agree on that and that. Which are the more important issues for me? Do I agree more with this candidate or that one? With which do I DISagree more?

In this country, no candidate for office will win with a narrow segment of the voters, and ignoring another segment.

THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED COMPROMISE!!!!!!
