That's not a compromise leftward on the part of the Republican party.
Because Republicans don't need to compromise. They sit there and let Democrats move toward them, secure in the knowledge that Democrats will be like "Look at this glorious bipartisan compromise!"
When only one side is compromising it's called capitulation.
Why ask for examples if your just going to reject them on principle?
On it's face, the idea that every Republican politician is right of every one of their voters on every issue is ridiculous. Republican voters, like all voters, compromise.
You're talking about voters compromising. I'm talking about politicians compromising. Or capitulating as Democrats do.
