"How do I know this? I was Alan's national political director, as most here know."

I guess I'm not "most". Let me make a subtle suggestion to you. You haven't done a darn thing to convince me to follow you or Alan, since the Republican convention of 2000. Nor has most anything that Alan has said since then. In fact, what I normally read here, makes me want to run as far away as I can.

I'm reading Ronald Reagan's autobiography now. There are very few tactics that I've seen exhibited by Alan's follower's in Reagan's political thought. Reagan was a brilliant statesman and politician. But he WAS a politician. He knew what was possible, and he learned that he had to lose some battles to win the war.

And Reagan would NEVER have published an article entitled:

"I AM NOT A FORD REPUBLICAN!"

We will not have the "reagan" unity of the party, until the bitter followers of keyes AND buchanan either leave for good, or repent their harsh words towards our President...
