Our message as conservatives is an affront b/c of its content. But why should we go the extra mile and become offensive, also? If you can govern conservatively but have a reputation as a moderate, that is probably best of all worlds.

Isn't that what compassionate conservatism is all about? And why boobs like Bob Barr can often be counterproductive? We're the good guys -- let's wear white hats and smile once in a while!

This is a good angle. I like it.
