Someone's going to claim that ground. Right now it looks more likely to be the Democratic party, simply because Bernie notwithstanding, they're less of a shambles than the GOP.

I doubt it.
The GOP have largely sacrificed presidential politics for state and a congressional power, which has been a good trade.
This 'middle' you talk about means lots of different things in various parts of the country.
On the presidential level the democrats have an easy path to the presidency, at the state and local level though they are hamstrung by the process.
