May I remind you that Ronald Reagan chose the Moderate, GOP Establishment RINO sell=out George H. W. Bush for his running mate?

George HW Bush wasn't a turncoat, back-stabbing, sell-out, like Rubio is. He didn't make his name in politics by pretending to be a staunch conservative, then upon achieving high office, eagerly fall in with the establishment elites.

GHWB was never a conservative, and never pretended to be one. Ronald Reagan chose him as his running mate to heal an intra-party rift that started during the primary. His advisers felt he needed to do that to bring the moderates on board in the general.

Sorry, but your comparison is wack.

You have a good memory for facts, and truth.

Spot on.
