It would be fascinating to see what would happen if a centrist Democrat and a centrist Republican formed a unity ticket? Two governors, one from each party campaigning on a platform of common sense initiatives that meld establishment ideas from both parties. They flip a coin to decide who is at the top of the ticket and then swap places for a re-election campaign.
It would be a long shot but, it might bring both parties to their senses and severely curtail the influence of the fringe activists in both.
that was a movie back in the 90s. jack lemmon and james garner called My Fellow Americans.
