Summary:
Republicans should ask more from their presidential candidates. That assertion runs counter to a common theme of political coverage, which is that the party's base demands that the candidates run so far to the right that they cannot win the general election.
But that's not a plausible explanation of why John McCain and Mitt Romney lost. Even if you accept the ideas that the primaries forced Romney to tell illegal immigrants to "self-deport" and that this statement hurt him with Hispanics, it wasn't his poor showing with Hispanics that cost him the election. And conservative voters have not actually asked Republican candidates to make many specific commitments. To a large extent, they approach the presidential primaries by asking which candidates are conservatives rather than by asking what conservative things they would attempt to do as president. These are related questions, but looking at the first in isolation from the second amounts to looking for badges of tribal identification.
