OTOH, with today's public gravitating toward the unelectable (in a general election) fringes of both parties, the parties want to have a method to field somebody other than a loony (e.g., Trump, Sanders). The trouble with the Democratic side is that the choice is between a loony and someone perpetually drowning in the scandal(s) du jour. On the GOP side, everybody but Kasich is compromised in some fashion, but Kasich isn't crazy enough to get the nomination.

You don't really think Bernie's a "loony", do you? I don't. In fact, I don't think Trump is a loony. As we've just seen here, he just plays to them. AFAIK, the only candidate on either side that qualifies for your description is Carson.
