Seriously, how would that electoral stance be moderate?l

Well, if you consider "moderate" to describe a temperament, then it could not be. But I see it more often used as centrist, mainstream, middle of the road, etc. "Moderate" Republicans are not right wing Reps; "moderate" Democrats are not left wing Dems.

If you take that second meaning, a position on a political spectrum, then it's not only conceivable but I suspect we've all seen the moment when someone, ideologically and with great rigidity, insists on the rightness of the middle of the road. And everyone not in it is politically nuts. To paraphrase, a part of the looney left or right.
