I don't know but I know that Michael Reagan endorsed Rick Perry last year.

[Minus_The_Bear]

Reagan didn't campaign for LBJ did he? He campaigned for Goldwater.

Reagan was also never an elected official of the Democrat party.

So did Sarah Palin.

Perry smells funny.....

[DRey]

I know. It’s been a long time for us, but that’s the smell of victory.

Oh, you think that, like Rush Limbaugh, Perry never voted for Reagan?

[Paperdoll]

Of course not. He was still a left wing Democrat in those days, too soon o0ut 9of his commie college days and fired up against Conservatives. Don’t forget he was later Al Gore’s campaign manager!

Perry’s Problematic Even today he must be judged by the company he keeps: Illegal immigrants and these people. Pals - http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/../2011/08/perrys_problematic_pals.html

Reagan voted for FDR.

Well, then, by the Freeper idealogical purity test, Reagan (who by the way was a Democrat until 1962) was a RINO.

;-)

[DRey]

He was never a left-wing Democrat. That’s a lie. He was a right-wing Democrat.

[DRey]

Reagan was a RINO?! WE'VE BEEN HAD!!!!!!!

Might I suggest specifics? We begin to assemble pro/con charts, and emotional generalities serve no general good.

The first time I ever heard anything about Perry was his decision to mandate shots for teens to prevent HPV. As a pro-life leader, I was shocked to know a conservative Texas guv would think that way. I now put that bit of info on the con side of the Perry chart.

And we all appreciate specific details of his voting record by Texans, or others who have kept score, or know personal anecdotes. But to make the bald statement that he is not a Conservative is not accurate. He is not WHOLLY Conservative on a number of issues, notably immigration.

His support of Gore is bad bad bad, but it was 1988 and how old was he then? I became a Conservative just prior my 30th birthday, and cast a first Conservative vote for Reagan in 1980. Most important is: What has he been the past decade?

If the choice is Perry v. Bachmann I’m all in for Michele.

[Free Vulcan]

Bachmann voted and I think worked for Carter’s campaign.

[skaterboy]

I suggest you look up Reagan’s past

[skaterboy]

So can Reagan
