If Horowitz is an opportunist where were you in 1980 when Reagan ran the first time?
If you were 30 in 1984 and you were born ~ 1954 where were you philosophically in 1964 with Goldwater?
So what if you were 10 years old. I was handing out Goldwater bumper stickers as a 6 year old along with my parents behind-liberal-lines in Rhode Island. We first supported Reagan for President in 1968.
If you didn't wake up to Reagan until the 1984 landslide, one might rightly wonder about your own "opportunism."
I suspect that Horowitz has accomplished more for the cause of conservatism by having become a convert to it, and by enunciating principles of conservatism as articulately as he does.
FReegards!
