As for conservatives, there's a reason that terms like jingoism and 'dittohead' seem to apply to many members of the 'base'.

The best example of fractionalized liberal base can be seen at any of the WTO protests. It is like a county fair. No one agrees on anything and they all think that their issues are the most important. Although I do not support these issues, issues such as terrorism, gay marriage, immigration, religion seem to unify the conservatives. Just an observation. Terms like "jingoism" and "dittohead"( Rush L's boys and girls) {hardley representative} are as convient to the liberal left as much as the stuff the conservative right spews forth. Partisan Wars:
