Clearly you didn't read my above post, i know he was a democrat, but he became a republican LONG before he ran for office. He also never held any wacky views as a democrat, as he put it the democrat party left him. Reagan was a spokesman for GM and went around the country talking and in the process he advocated conservatism. A a lady in the audience stood up and said you sound a lot like a republican. Reagan then said well maybye i am, i should switch. She happened to be an election official and gave him the forms on the spot. Reagan then continued to preach conservatism for the rest of his life.

BIG difference between what reagan did and what romney did. Romney is changing as he seeks higher office, reagan changed long before he sought the governorship and he held the same views.
