When you "waffle" on a subject, you won't give a definite opinion on your point of view. It can also mean when you change your opinion on something. Like if you were pro choice but then later on supported the pro life movement, and then changed back again.
Wing nuts are people who are conservative and don't think for themselves. They just kind of spout propaganda and make all their decisions based on one opinion. Here's another definition: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wing+nut&defid=1120041
Political base is the main ground you stand on. For instance, if someone is VERY Christian, that could be their political base by which they determine all other political views. Like no same sex marriage and Pro Life.

Waffle = changing or not making up your mind on a specific issue.
Political Base = a group that you can expect to vote together and for the same person. Examples are any minority, and women, rich or poor people.
A Wing Nut is nut that is made to be screwed on to a bolt by hand. The nut has two special wings that make it easier to screw on. In politics a wing nut is probably someone who is worried too much about the right of left wing (conservative or liberal) or other wings of politics like the moral minority, or the pro-lifers etc.

Waffle is to be for something and then be against it and then before it
the politcal base are those that will always vote for you no matter how arong you might be
a wing nut is a little nut that looks like a wing and tightens by turning the wing with your thumb and pointer finger!

"Waffling" means you have no clear-cut stance on any particular issue. Or, a person will say one thing and do another.
A political "base" is a group of people whom a politicial represents. Example: a candidate from Kansas represents (more than likely) farmers.

Study John "effin" Kerry. That's the definition of "waffling".

To "waffle" on an issue is to avoid stating an opinion.

It depends.
The Libs would say "If a Democrat changes their mind, they are Enlightened".
Libs also say "If a Republican changes their mind, then they Waffle".
Guess that sums it up.....
