It is very difficult to govern from the right, or the left. Perhaps people don't really recall Reagan as President, and his administration has become some conservative dream that it was not. He knew he had to compromise and he did.

"I'm president of all the people, liberals too." Or something like that. Reagan's words. I remember everyone was smacking him down on Firing Line one time. Only Rusher said he was thoroughly pleased understanding Reagan couldn't do everything he wanted. The country is split 50/50 and most Americans want big government. That's a fact you have to live with although you do what you can to change their minds.

I have posted that he has to be the President of all of the people on here so much I am sure people are sick of it, but it is just true. I hated when Clinton made it known he hated the rest of us. That is not a President of the USA! That is a partisan hack.

I just read Peggy Noonans book on Reagan, the first one, What I saw at the Revolution or something like that. He did so many things that weren't "conservative."
