The trick is to find a compromise which pleases both factions, or at
least upsets both equally.

In particular, I think there is potential for some very shaky and
tentative common ground, in the area of parental control over young
children. Libertarians might be convinced to make an exception to
their principles for that case, which would open up room for small but
valuable concessions to conservatives.
