>>If you were to read the article again and substitute a different label for the "Rovian" one, some label without the baggage, you would see his point. Had he called his two models, say, "base-to-center" and "great untapped center" rather than "Rovian" and "Beltway Pundit," you would have appreciated the insight.<<

I don't think there's any great insight there, as I said earlier. I mean, how else does one win elections, really?

So, basically, the author lost me by using a loaded term and thinking he could define it as he wished to. Then he bored me by making an observation that I don't think is meaningful or insightful.
