May be a counter irritant, barb, but it is classic Hitchcock! '-)

Is this any better?:

A conservative is a liberal who hasn't been mugged yet. A moderate is kinda someone who sort of believes muggings happen.

"I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever, in religion, in philosophy, in politics, or in anything else, where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction is the last degradation of a free and moral agent. If I could not go to heaven but with a party, I would not go there at all."
--Thomas Jefferson to Francis Hopkinson, 1789. ME 7:300
