Your burning desire to rewrite history is impressive.

Find one Reagan era Repub that was pro gay marraige.

Fins one that supported abortion

Find one that would have pushed for a fib like Romney

Find one that wanted to ‘share power’.

Find one that wanted to give Dems power at their expense.

One. You can’t. Because the DEMOCRATS back then were more conservative than the GOP today. The GOP then actually tried following their own platform. This crew ignores it almost completely.

You either need a remedial history lesson or a different place to hang out because trying to sell that BS is anything but ‘conservative’. And as to my supposed arrogance”. You just forgot what someone that won’t cave to BS looks like. There is no ‘arrogance involved. I don’t think I’m any smarter or better than most Freepers. That’s you projecting.

Nancy Landon Kassebaum, wife of James Baker later in life, She was a PRO ABORTION REPUBLICAN SENATOR From KANSAS!

Kansas now has the most conservative delegation to Congress in the COUNTRY!
That was easy.

And the “gay marriage” canard? Good Heaven's that was not even remotely an issue under Reagan, and the Courts forced it on us today. Why pull up that canard? (Oh, yeah, you are a trouble maker. You care not one wit about defeating true leftist liberal Democrats, you just want to destroy any effective opposition to the Democrats, you are on a mission to destroy any chance at conservative unity. Admit it. You are an instigator. You are a troll. You are an agent provocateur who would love to see Harry Reid survive, right?)

Find one [Reagan-era Republican] that supported abortion

Not trying to start a fight but there were a lot of these. Even Barry Goldwater in his last few years in the Senate was pro-abortion. Chuck Percy, John Chafee, Arlen Specter, Jacob Javits, and many others.

You are correct...the GOP of the Reagan era were more Conservative than today’s GOP. Even a large number of Dems were as Conservative as today’s GOP.

Tip O’Neill was liberal...but no flake job like Nancy Pelosi. Reagan could never have any sort of working relationship with Nutsy Nancy if she were speaker at that time
