Mitt Romney is a moderate, because Republicans know that Obama is a moderate* and they try to take on strength** with strength.
Newt Gingrich is a Conservative*, because he is trying to out value or nuance Romney.
Is the Republican race the old circular firing squad of the Hamilton/Burr conflict?

** Ctrl F "Rove".
[Against Romney Obama can move left. Against Gingrich, he can stay moderate. The checks and balances are between the branches, we need cooperation, compromise and more progressives in the legislature to get anywhere. Failing that, gridlock is a failsafe.
