The NeandeRepublicans are now saying that their losses are all the fault of the more moderate Republicans.

It’s fascinating. After 1972 and 1984, the Democrats saw electoral disasters as a message to hew to the center, and after 1964, 2006, and 2008, Republicans saw it as an excuse to drive the center from their party.

At some point, they will simply go further right than they can push the Overton window.
