I understand what you mean to convey but are these tactics (of Steele's) effective or not in today's culture?
Sure, we could hang a sign outside that states our core values and if anyone didn't like them they could turn around and leave. Or we could ask them inside, and politely yet firmly EXPLAIN why we believe as we do without being contentious or dictatorial.
I may be going out on a limb here, but I'd think the latter scenario would be the more efficacious one.

I don’t know if they are effective, I mean we just went through that kind of thing with McCain didn’t we?
I suppose you can highlight the broader appealling values like fiscal conservatism and smaller government, sometimes people including myself agree strongly with certain core beliefs that others are not quite as important.
So I would say, rope ‘em in with the broader appealing conservative core issues, and they may come around on the rest or not mind so much.
