Lay off smearing the Christians. I don't agree with every position of the religious right, either, but conservatives should leave the bogey-man stories to the Left. And stop taking electoral advice from people who wouldn't have voted Republican anyway.

Manage the image and stop kicking your friends.
Kathleen Parker has made a name for herself by claiming to be a conservative and then writing in a way that proves she's obviously not. Where I fault the conservatives is in their paying any attention to her (David Brooks, Peggy Noonan, et al.) at all.

[illustrates thickness with fingers] The 11th Edition will be that [narrows fingers] thick. Winston Smith: So, The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect? Syme: The secret is to move from translation, to direct thought, to automatic response. No need for self-discipline. Language coming from here [the larynx], not from here
