She said that her late husband, Ronald Reagan, would have approved of a Romney presidency.
"Ronnie would have liked Gov. Romney's business background and his strong principles, and I have to say, I do, too," Mrs. Reagan said in the statement. "I believe Mitt Romney has the experience and leadership skills that our country so desperately needs, and I look forward to seeing him elected president in November."
No, he would not have.
God Bless Mrs.Reagan,and I will take her word that her husband would have approved of Repuplicrat Romeny.
However I do not agree with the Reagan’s in this case.
A Reagan quote that is very appropriate for today:
(from Oct 27, 1964)
“The Founding Fathers knew a government can’t control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose. So we have come to a time for choosing.”[70] He also said, “You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man’s age-old dream - the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order - or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism.”

Obama is taking us straight into totalitarianism and government control of individuals.
As Reagan said, today is also a “time for choosing”.
Everyone can breath a little easier now that we finally know who the 200 yr old Nancy Reagan will vote for.
Just so no one misses it this time, this is sarcasm
God love her.
However, I doubt she did any Youtube searches of Willard? His liberal history. Not to mentioin the one where he says, IN HIS OWN WORDS, “i’m no Rondald Reagan”
I am hoping everything I have learned about his history is truly that..history?
Although, I havn’t seen much evidence of same.
Maybe Mrs Reagan can set me staight?
Disgusting. Why can’t she not say anything....Mitt is a complete liberal and her husband would be embarrassed at how low the Republican party has gone.
They need to time these releases better. Friday release? In a down news cycle, or one where Obama already looks bad because of the unemployment figures released today? My gosh. Sit on these people. Time ‘em.
People are making way too much out of this. Nancy Reagan is a 90 year old woman. Let her endorse whoever she wants to endorse. The truth is that no one — not even her — knows who her late husband would have endorsed. But who cares if she says Ronald Reagan would have endorsed Romney? She’s 90 and not some political guru at this point in her life. Read the story and move on.
What are the “strong principles” Nancy is referring to? Does she mean Romney’s stances on both sides of every issue? Or his claim that he learned to support abortion from his mother? Maybe she means his statement last month that “two people of the same gender in a loving relationship” should be able to adopt children.
If those are his principles-—and I have to assume they are, since they are proven by his actions, and not just platitudes mouthed to gullible crowds-—she can have them. I can’t imagine Reagan supporting that, myself, but even if he would have, I want no part of it.
Well, Geroge W. Romney did not approve of a Reagan presidency, did he?
The true “Independent” Romney on the Reagen Presidency in his own words.

Hey joe - you make sure you call Mrs. Reagan right up and inform her that: (a) she supports socialism, (b) she is an enemy of the Republic, and (c) she is turning her back on the American people!
Then post her response here so all us “socialism supporters” can read it.
You wouldn't want your FRiends catching you doing it.
