In a piece that starts with discussion of Rush Limbaugh's out-reach efforts to the low infomation community, Jen properly describes 'moderates' for what they are:

"Conservatives catch flak for being confrontational, judgmental, and overly critical of members of their own party. But what do moderates do? They go out of their way to be non-confrontational, non-judgmental, and only critical of conservative members of their party. They have "friends on the other side of the aisle" instead of opposition. They harp on tone and finesse while the nation is going down, and they deny that is even happening. They are witnessing the demise of their nation, but aren't too damn upset about it, because they don't know it's happening."
