The moreover that it was after that Giuliani dropped out of the race and endorsed McCain, thus uniting all the moderate/independent wing of the GOP behind McCain

Hey wait, does this mean that the one-two punch of McCain's loss in 2008, followed by Romney's loss in 2012 (after the GOP base had continued to shift rightwards), signify the discrediting of Republican moderates? In the same way that Goldwater's loss wrecked the libertarian configuration for decades, or McGovern for the progressives?
