Interesting how the opinion of Nancy Reagan has evolved over this thread. First, she was being “used” by Romney’s people, and clearly wrong about her husbands opinion. Then she was senile, and finally was never a conservative and one step away from Gloria Steinem.
Isn’t it possible, just possible, that Mrs. Reagan is facing the same choice that many conservatives are, that one of the two nominiees WILL be the president next year, and while Romney certainly leaves a lot to be desired, is a better option than Obama? And being such, she is choosing to highlight Romney’s positives?
Is it not further possible that she, his wife of 50 years, would have known what her husband would have done?
I just dont understand the mentality that says that anyone who wont scream FUMR at the top of their lungs at all times MUST be a RINO, or Senile, or a Phoney, or manipulated. Men of good will can disagree, including conservatives.
I don’t understand it either.
Good post.
Nothing evolved, post 351 describes the situation accurately, and you should look at post 166.
The idiocy is you trying to claim that this represents a sort of support from Ronald Reagan, who we all know would not be enthusiastic to help his Rockefeller/Romney enemies take over his party, that he fought so hard to wrest from them, especially during a period when his conservative base was making such gains through the tea party.
To see a Mitt Romney, the ultimate anti-Reagan manage to pull this off, would have broken his heart.
