DC, you and others talk about the "base" as one entity. It is not. Just like with the Dems, there are multiple "bases" or segmentations. The Southern/Midwestern evangelical base is one thing but the evangelical base in the West is another thing (Huckabee barely registered here in the Evangelical Capital of the World). Then there's the fiscal/anti-tax base, the libertarian base (the Dems have one too but it's a different animal), the war on terror base, the pro-military base (which comes in play in CA, CO and VA), etc.
