Oh, there is a well shaped identity on the right. It's just much more extremist, irrational and counterproductive than any moderate GOP candidate would like to be. So Jeff is right in his own way, here. A wacko right-wing crazy-ass candidate is probably what many GOP constituents want. Whether that'd be a winning formula on elections, is another question. And exactly how useful would that be for the country after the election, is yet another question that I'm rarely seeing being discussed at all. Because people might not like the answers.
