Welcome Back, Dad

I've been trying to convince my fellow conservatives that they have been wasting their time in a fruitless quest for a new Ronald Reagan to emerge and lead our party and our nation. I insisted that we'd never see his like again because he was one of a kind. I was wrong!
Wednesday night I watched the Republican National Convention on television and there, before my very eyes, I saw my Dad reborn; only this time he's a she. And what a she!
This was Ronald Reagan at his best -- the same Ronald Reagan who made the address known now solely as "The Speech," which during the Goldwater campaign set the tone and the agenda for the rebirth of the traditional conservative movement that later sent him to the White House for eight years and revived the moribund GOP.
Welcome back, Dad, even if you're wearing a dress and bearing children this time around.

~Michael Reagan, radio host and son of President Ronald Reagan

Would he vote for her over Romney or McCain?
Absolutely.

Reagan would only support Palin.

If Sarah Palin runs... she will win.

If Obama is allowed to continue doing what he’s been doing, short of a bloody civil war... our country will fail.

God bless our country... again.

I suspect a large percentage of Tea Party purists would find some excuse not to vote for Reagan himself if he showed up today.

I voted for Reagan in 1980 and 1984. I will vote for Palin. I will not, however, vote for Romney under any circumstances.

Well, I think seeing Obama as the alternative on the ballot in 2012 will adjust your standards dramatically...

I worked for President Reagan and miss him as much as my late father. He wasn’t perfect, but his face belongs on Mount Rushmore as one of our greatest leaders, IMO.

If it’s Romney versus Obama in 2012:

I made my statement fully aware that the alternative is likely to be Obama. There’s not enough difference between the two to make it worth tarnishing Conservatives even more.

Same here. Reagan was the first preisdent I voted for. He was the right man at the right time for the right job.
Palin isnt Reagan, but then again, neither is any of the RINOS bumping and grinding for the job. There cant be another Reagan, just as there cant be another Patton or LeMay. But Palin come closest to mark so far.
Say no to RINOs.
