Grandson of Paul.

It was a dark day for the country when Reagan was talked into accepting GHWB as his running mate instead of his personal choice, Paul Laxalt, a true conservative.

Wrong - grandson

He’s the grandson of Paul Laxalt, the former senator and Ronald Reagan confidant once known as “the first friend”-still, at 91, casting a long if not always visible shadow in Nevada politics. Awkwardly, young Laxalt is also the illegitimate son of Sen. Pete Domenici, his grandfather’s longtime Senate colleague. In fact, it was only last year that Adam Laxalt’s mother Michelle, a 24-year-old Reagan operative at the time of the affair and now a well-known Washington lobbyist, revealed her son’s parentage for the first time, a sensational revelation that almost certainly had the effect of clearing the way for his political career.
