Considering that he's 2-0, I'd say that's tigerblood winning, not losing.
As to the right finding a more center footing, here's a good simplified discussion of why you would be wrong in assuming the GOP is so far right:

There's another thing I've seen in the past that better illustrates this, but I am having some difficulties finding it.
Basically, if you draw two bell curves representing the Dems and Reps, with their peaks on either side of "center," the study shows that the Dem peak has shifted further left without changing the amplitude of the peak but the GOP curve has shifted to the right less far than the Dem curve had shifted to the left, but it's more spread-out with a lower peak - which means that the GOP has a broader spectrum of views about a given political subject and the Dems have only gotten more partisan.
*Everything* is about special interest group victimhood identity politics for the left. They see everything exclusively in terms of racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. even going so far as to invent imagined slights in which they can be offended and victimized where no such situation exists.
