That's what some Republicans told Reagan after his first unsuccessful bid for the R nomination and the presidency.

Reagan was a famous conservative that emerged in at least 1947 if he wasn't known as such already, Reagan was successful at getting elected and reelected, he wasn't an anti-Reagan liberal guy that pulled off a single unsuccessful term as governor with no reelection.

Reagan served two terms as Governor of CA from 1966 to 1974. One more term than Mitt Romney.

Reagan ran for president in 1968 and 1976 failing BOTH times to capture the Republican nomination. He won both the Republican nomination and the presidency during his THIRD bid for the presidency in 1980.

Hear hear, Ans! That's our kinda STUFF!

Romney is a loser and bad news for the GOP, conservatism, and America. We need to fight him off the GOP before once again, as he did last time, his "spoiler" status creates a drain on the coffers and resources of truly worthy conserative candidates and warriors. Romney is like slow poison to the GOP.
