Romney’s problem is that he has not been a lifelong advocate of the principles he now espouses.

Neither was Reagan.

I'm not a Romney person, but I find it absurd that some candidates are automatically dismissed because they didn't come out of the womb spouting conservative tenets. People evolve.

Reagan espoused his principles for decades before he bacame president. Romney’s conversion appears to be fairly recent and rather convenient wouldn’t you say?

The problem is that Romney "evolved" only when it was in his own self-interest to do so. Suspicious, no?

This author is a nothing. He is just another elitist trying to bash the looooooong shadow of reagan’s leadership.

The Reagan revolution was very real and very positive.

Elitist articles like this are about as useful as Pelosi’s efforts to stage a coup over american diplomacy.
