parties are becoming more conservative and more liberal with the blue dog democrats getting voted out in this election. is there still a place for moderates here? first of all there aren t that many moderates left and frankly, my concern is if you re somebody like olympia snowe and you look in the mirror, you see mike castle, you see somebody who politically is very much like you, who got taken out by people, in this case, the tea party, and that s the concern, so that much of these people, i think, senator snowe is an example, wants to be in the middle, because that s where her voters are, that s where a lot of the public is. politically, primaries are the weapon that people on the polls use to pick out people they don t like and that, frankly, more than anything else, kind of militates against moderation, not a good sign. but i don t think it s really deniable for the next year or two as a leading factor. jenna: david, richard, charlie, stand by. we have breaking news and will get
