I think it will be like it has been with the other stuff he's dealt with so far. That is that he'll stake out the most advantageous position, the media will say he's abandoning his base, some members of his base will believe it on their own, most won't, then after it's all said and done he'll not have given an inch.

I was wrong about him before, where I thought he was going in the wrong direction and that he was gonna end up giving an inch. But each time it doesn't turn out like that as far as I can tell.
