Eh, not really. Clinton did that. Obama doesn't triangulate so much as he convinces enough conservatives they are wrong that they go along with him, plus mollifies enough that even though they don't agree with him, they don't complain.

His style has been somethign he's worked on for awhile. He won class President at his law school. Conservatives voted for him because "we felt he'd give us a fair shake". And he does.

Unlike Edwards, he won't exclude conservative interest groups from policymaking. He'll listen to everyone. He'll still come down on the left side more often than not, but at least we know he won't demonize us or exclude us.

And about all he has to offer.

Is that from something you've read or are you just asserting it? If the former, a link please.
