Reagan had a proven track record of being conservative when he ran for president, a position which is not held for a lifetime.

In fact the Democrat Pary that Reagan left in 1962 was far more conservative than the Democrat Party of the late eighties.

As Reagan said the Democrat Party left me, I didn't leave it. Furthermore, most of his views were conservative when he left the Democrat party and became more so over time.

Comparing Reagan in any regard to Miers is ridiculous.

Reagan signed a pro-abortion bill as California governor as a Republican.

I didn't. You said that changing parties doesn't mean beliefs change. You don't know any such thing about anyone who has changed parties.
