Mr. Keyes ought to go back and compare Ronald Reagan's track record while he was governor of California -- he'd probably be shocked to discover that Reagan seemed to be two different people during the course of his political career. He governed California much as Schwarzenegger would have, and he served as President much as McClintock would have.

I find it ironically amusing that Arnold's supporters find it necessary to sully the name of Ronald Reagan to try and make Arnold look better.

I guess if you want to kill a tree, you go for the roots...

And, oh, the Tom Supporters don't trot Reagan out every five minutes to support their cause.

Here is what too many either fail to recognize, or refuse to acknowledge:

The conservative movement, the conservative agenda, is more important than any candidate, more important than any particular race.

If we, the sole carriers of the dream of a shining city on a hill in our generation, give up on conservative principles, the republic is dead.

1. I am not a supporter of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Since I do not live in California, and he is not running for a legislative office in the Federal government, I don't have much of a stake in the outcome of this race. I am certainly in favor of Davis' removal from office, on the grounds that "a llittle revolution every now and then is a good thing." If Ronald McDonald were the only candidate opposing Davis, I'd be a Ronald McDonald supporter.

2. If pointing out Ronald Reagan's record while he was governor of California amounts to "sullying his reputation," then you find yourself in a bizarre position where feel-good fairy tales are more important than facts. I don't think I can do anything to help you, if that's the case.
