Doesn't explain why they chose to nominate McCain and Dubaya. Dole was fairly moderate as well. Its been a long time (Reagan in 1980) since the Republicans nominated a true right winger. So he has got a point IMO.

It would be hard to find anyone who is not a right-winger in either party(See Progressive Caucus budget vote). The difference being discusses here is between normal right-wingers and extreme ones.
Right winger used as a relative term. Obviously.
