I was just making a play on something some people like to say to moderates in political arguments: "If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything!"

Of course it's insulting, and meant to be; but being moderate or centrist doesn't mean you don't stand for something...just not their something. Anyway, I like mine better.
