Why did many Southerners want to fight an offensive war against the North?

Many Southerners believed that the best way to increase the power of anti-war groups in the North was to win significant battles there in order to discourage continued attacks on the South's attempt at independence. By bringing the war to the North, it was a double attack on the Radical Republicans and War Democrats, who were already upset at Union troop losses in Southern battles, and causing such losses in their own "backyard" so to speak. Another reason was the hope that some of the slave holding Union states would join the Confederacy.
