He clearly did insult talk radio hosts and listeners by buying into the template publicly with his statements.

Seriously, I do not know what you are talking about. I have yet to see a single instance in which he insulted talk radio. Got a source?

In his address to CPAC - which should be an audience that Daniels would have felt comfortable letting it all hang out at - he said that we must expand our base beyond the audiences of Rush, Sean, and Laura, etc. His context was clearly that we must “reach out” to moderates instead of boldly explaining who conservatism is right and liberalism is wrong. It was eerily the same as Obama’s “listening to Rush Limbaugh is not how you get things done.”

I heard it and it was very McCainish. I admit Daniels does not govern like McCain, but he does speak in some of the same code. And when you add that to the fact that clearly the Washington Post is hoping he’ll get the GOP nomination, it raises very red flags. He can over come it, but it will take a very aggressive rhetorical effort to make conservatives trust him.
