During Primaries do candidates rush to the middle? I used to think that candidates played to the left during primaries and ran to the middle during the main election. DU has informed me the Base is actually those middle of the road voters and not the Progressives. :shrug: Who knew?

3. I consider the base to be those |

who are active in the campaigns -- the true believers. They're the ones who make phone calls, knock on doors, and donate, and most of them are progressive.
