An interesting analysis of the advantages of small wins by compromising on values versus a win by losing on value issues that define the party. Since the compromise choice is not available for the next two years Obama might shift to energizing his base for 2012 by fighting hard on issues that excite the baes.
John McCain picked Mama Grizzly to excite his base and it worked. He lost the election, however, and he blames it on the choice of Palin.
