Jon Stewart, in about 2001, said "politics tends to be dominated by the extremes because the people in the middle have better shit to do." You really have to have an axe to grind to want to imbibe Sam Harris very often. If your ideology is relatively stable, and if you get along with most people, the stridence wears you out and you go smell the flowers.
