The base of the GOP saw that moderate candidates like Romney and McCain were vilified despite their being the paragons of character and centrist compromise.

I can see that. In the end though, McCain and Romney both were more popular candidates. The reason Trump won and they didn't is because Trump was going up against Hillary.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
