The widow of President Ronald Reagan says she is firmly behind Romney. And she says that her "Ronnie" would have liked Romney's business background and what she calls his "strong principles."
In a statement issued after the Romneys' visit, Mrs. Reagan said she believes that Romney has the experience and leadership skills that, in her words, "our country so desperately needs."

Thank you !
Spot on! Pretty shameful how the GOPe is manipulating this fine woman who is at an advanced age and without her stalwart husband by her side. Amazing those here who cannot admit that this is complete manipulation of an elderly person. If I did that as a conservator of my elderly relative I would be admonished by the court.
I welcome your prayers. I shall do the same for you.
Screams the man with his outstretched leg and with his next step falls off the cliff.
How about quitting the personal attacks and just stating your points? Reagan would have issue with your point of view...deal with it.
You don’t say anything, you merely insult and emote angry feelings, your posts are useless.
Reagan was the President the candidate that I hated because I was told to do so as a young person... and came to love, because of he kept his promises and helped me to succeed by getting government out of my way. God bless Ronald Reagan and may he punish those who so cynically use the woman he loved so much.

Remind me where I said anything at all about Willard in my post.
Can’t be found?
No...I didn’t think so.
I was speaking as one who has intimately known a woman of that age, and as to her mental capacity.
The real conservatives are putting their time, energy, and money not fighting a losing battle, but fighting for new candidates for lower offices in November. Otherwise you are just lying and working at this point for the Obama campaign and are no conservative, but a liberal Obama supporter doing his propaganda.
Wake the hell up.
It’s typical behavior from the Willardbots. This kind of thread is what we used to call a “Willard Worship Thread.” They’ve been doing this stuff for 6 years now and counting. When I see one of these, it’s best to get in early to post some truth and watch their heads explode, get incensed and resort to personal attacks in short order since there is never ANY way they can win an argument on the facts. In better days, these trolls would’ve been zotted on sight for polluting this website with their spamming.
Who is feeding yours? PMSMSNBCCNN?
Why don’t you dig the man up and prop him up and campaign for him. This is 2012 dear. HELLO! Nancy is a perfectly intelligent woman and you are not only insulting her for your own selfish purpose you are also insulting the person that you say you ‘idolize.’ You lie.
Rinse and repeat... what you said.
As mentioned. Real conservatives have moved on from a losing fight and are busy fighting for candidates in lower offices in November if you really were a conservative this is what you would be doing.
But since you are now working for the Obama campaign and fighting for Obama's reelection you are and should be considered the liberal Obama supporter that you truly are.
Yes, but that was your relative. I had a relative that age a decade ago and she was susceptible to manipulation. You don’t want to believe Mrs. Reagan could be manipulated, but I conclude she precisely is being manipulated, especially given the people we’re talking about.
Shameful.
“””Reagan used to be a Democrat. Romney never was.”””
Romney left the Republican party because of Reagan, and became a registered independent, he eventually started supporting democrat candidates, doing democrat fund raising, voting democrat, and fund raising for Planned Parenthood. He did all this long after the left and right were clearly defined.
Now take a look at Reagan, decades before the Reagan Revolution, and the Vietnam war and the 1960s and abortion wars and Jimmy Carter.
You mean 8 years of military service Captain Reagan, who by the second half of the 1940s was already starting to be seen as a communist fighting conservative, testifying to Congress and naming names, working with the FBI, having to carry a gun for self defense from the left, Reagan?
The last time Reagan voted Dem for President was 1948, for Romney it was 1992, By 1952 Reagan was campaigning for Republicans as a “Democrat for Eisenhower”, he kept using that anti-liberal, conservative club until 1962.
In 1952 Reagan was campaigning for Republicans like Eisenhower, who he campaigned for again in 1956, and then campaigned for Nixon against JFK in 1960, already having earned a reputation as an active speaker for conservatism for years.
The Reagan who formally registered Republican in 1962 and spoke at the Goldwater convention in 1964? Romney was already anti-Goldwater and anti-Reagan. Reagan was famous for his conservatism before the Vietnam War, and the Great Society, Roe V Wade, the abortion wars, Jimmy Carter, decades of Cold War defeats, and the radical 1960s, before the Reagan Revolution and the Contract with America, and Clinton, and the Gore election of 2000, Mitt Romney would not even register Republican during the Reagan Presidency or vote for him. Romney, at almost age 60, had a stroke (or something) and suddenly, unexplainedly, became a totally different person around 2006, merely to run for national office.
Reagan and Romney have nothing in common.
We were all lead to believe that "W" was different from his Dad. In the end he was not. His mission was the same... "new world order.
My goodness! You know so much about Mrs. Reagan!
Your conclusion is yours, and yours only.
