I think it's underlying cause rather than incidental to the goals you describe, and this is why: You don't see conservatives willing to make incremental deals to further policy ends. Republicans will, but it's basically anathema to conservatives. Republicans (Lugar, Bennett) who were willing to compromise with Democrats to get things done got primaried.

But I basically agree with you (as does Robin) that conservatives prefer a world of (traditional) hierarchy instead of one of equality.
