Oh, it's very clear the answer to this is Kansas.
The simple fact of the matter is that in Kansas, the GOP has trotted off so far to the right that they're hemorrhaging massive numbers of Republican votes in recent elections, with the moderate wing getting more and more put off by the ultracons.
It's not just issues like abortion, which don't seem divisive within the GOP itself (by this I mean that moderate pro-choice Republicans are more than willing to vote for pro-life candidates). It's issues like evolution, where the Kansas GOP is just so off in left field that they're losing voters over it—permanently.
Look at the last race for Attorney General there. Embarassing.
