You are a real enigma.

You say all the right things and post the right pictures in general, are big on Limbaugh...

Then there is this Romney thing of yours, a man who embodies the exact opposite of Reagan and even dismissed him...

Something is out of whack somewhere.

Sad really.

Where is RINO coward Romney
as the Dems push through ObamaCARE?

Answer: The RINO coward is hiding, sending out his saboteurs
against Gov. Palin and all GOP stars again, and selling his ghostwritten book.

Mitt RomneyCARE (D, Carpetbagger):
“Shhhhhh. Reagan was bad. I Was For The Obama Bailout ....
Before I Was Against It”

“Romney praises Obama
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney praised President Obama
at a GOP fundraising dinner Wednesday ..
"I also think it's important for us to nod to the president when he's right," Romney said....
Romney, who spoke at a dinner for the National Republican Senatorial Committee,
said he's pleased with the president's plans to "finish the job" in Iraq and Afghanistan
-- lines that drew applause from the partisan audience. He also applauded the president
for standing up to the auto industry.
"I hope he continues to be tough ....The former businessman even offered faint praise for
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, saying that after a series of initial missteps,
"I think he's finally getting close to the right answer."

Alex Beam: “In truth, Ronald Reagan
and Mitt Romney have as much in common
as Cardinal O’Malley and Conan O’Brien.
Deservedly or not, Reagan earned a reputation for constancy.
Once he turned against communism, he opposed it big-time.
…. And our former governor? Inconstancy, thy name is Mitt!
A woman’s right to choose? Yes! No! Yes!
Are we in Massachusetts? Yes! Are we in Iowa? No!
Are we on TV? Whatever!”


Mitt “MLK walked with me” RomneyCARE:
Just buy my book and lie for me. Promise anything.
Tell everyone to ignore what we have done. Change the subject.
Now let’s all go home and play with our bananas.”

Interestingly enough, there is (as the late Paul Harvey used to say) "the rest of the story", in my post #66, there is the tell tale video clip of Mitt-Witt proclaiming with authority that he was an "Independent" during the Reagan years and that he was not trying to "go back" to Reagan-Bush. Nobody has ever escaped that sort of cheap political two-faced posturing, and Willard isn't about to be the first.

But now for that "Rest of the Story"...

I contend that the Romney family has NEVER liked Ronald Reagan, I believe that all of their faux warm words about the Gipper are nothing but boilerplate, absolute fabrications and outright lies. Why?

We journey back 44 years to March 1966, and we read this UPI news article:

"March 28, 1966 (UPI) Detroit - Ronald Reagan, candidate for the Republican nomination for Governor of California, said today he liked Governor George Romney but believed former Vice President Richard M. Nixon was more likely to win the GOP 1968 Presidential nomination. Reagan, a former movie star, told a news conference Romney was "a fine Governor". But he said he believed Nixon "probably has both hands on the stick more than anyone else" in the race for the Republican nomination...Reagan said his own lack of experience in public office should not hurt his candidacy. He pointed out that Romney never held public office before being elected Governor of Michigan."

There you have it folks. Although Reagan ended up as a favorite son candidate in 1968 for the GOP nomination, he was luke warm at best in his words for Mitt's Daddy, then-Governor George Romney of Michigan, and Reagan was not bashful to express his belief that Nixon was "more likely" to win the nomination (which in fact he did).

Elections and campaigns have been won or lost on less than that. All Reagan did was express his opinion. But the mercurial and temperamental (some say unstable) George Romney most likely never forgot that slight, even if unintended by Ronald Reagan. And you can be sure that his kids (including Mitt of course) got an earful about that 'former movie star' who dissed George's chances for winning the GOP nomination in '68.

I think Mitt Romney hates Ronald Reagan's guts for that.
