The mistake McCain-Palin made was to move way to the right. They pandered to the worst parts of the GOP followers. I am absolutely certain that not all Republicans are as crazy as the far right bible thumping loons. Just as your average Democrat is not as crazy as Jessie Jackson or Howard Stern.
I don't think half of this country is conservative, or half liberal. I think 75% of this country is moderate, but fall on either side of a narrow ideological divide.
If a politician wants to be successful in the 21st century, they must cater not to their party base, but instead to the moderate intellect and reason.
