The majority is right of center. The right of center would win almost any election if it were processed like local elections where everyone votes on candidates from the whole field, then a run-off held if needed.
Our system is set up to be bought by running year and a half primaries where money is needed to survive and extreme right and extreme left are unhappy about candidates for the middle.
If extreme ideas such as (no morning after pill for rape victims) were not relished by a small few, a republican reasonable candidate would always win every election.
