Anything to make politics more interesting. Huntsman is awful though, and not really a moderate.

Wow,  the Republicans might actually have a 3rd moderate in their Senate caucus???   That's crazy, I thought only hardcore conservatives were allowed in nowadays.

Besides Collins, Murkowski, Portman, Flake, Capito, Heller, etc., they're all solid conservatives. Roll Eyes

How is Capito a moderate?

How is Capito a moderate?
She identified as pro-choice in the 2000's, supported stem cell research and opposed some abortion restrictions, but has moved to the right on that issue since 2010.
Does she have moderate views on any issues other than abortion?

Are Democrats who are liberal on everything but one token cultural issue not considered moderate?  Mark Pryor says hello.

Mark Pryor is moderate to conservative on guns, same sex marriage, abortion, and environmental issues.

Anyway, no matter how right-wing the Republican Party gets there will always be some that are more moderate than others, so "Are there moderate Republicans' is a kind of pointleess question.
