Outside of Ragan, he is still the most conservative Republican. (I know he was a Big D, but he acted R and wouldn’t be accepted by D today.)
He was maybe conservative on tax cuts, but he was a big “L” liberal on everything else.
I’ve listened to some of the speeches of Democrats of 50 years ago - My, they sound so conservative. One speech of Humbert Humphrey was really good - fit for Tea Party. It shows how far left we have all been skewed.
