It's rough. There aren't enough members of his base to win without more moderate votes ( the ones without knees on their chests and knives to their throats that is ) and there's no way he gets those in this climate by appealing to his base.
Since he's polling higher than many thought he would kinda shows he's not making a horrible choice.
