If you think this person is a "moderate" voter then you really, really haven't been paying attention to what they're actually saying.
And if you think this kind of person will embrace hardcore anti-capitalism because it's against the status quo, you haven't even done a cursory read of what they're actually saying.
This person is the mythical moderate. The person who isn't REALLY that dedicated, they just need to be given the right pretty words to vote for the other side. You know, exactly what you've been fucking saying. But any examination of the moderate voter reveals, as I mentioned, that such a concept, at least in electorally significant numbers, is mythical. These people absolutely have deeply-rooted beliefs and loyalties, those beliefs and loyalties are not pliable, as much as they pretend and loudly proclaim that they are and playing the Internationale isn't going to convert them just because they claim to be dissatisfied with the status quo.
