I voted for Reagan in 1980, having seen what damage Carter did, and have voted Republican ever since.
Are you holding it against me that I wasn't born conservative and had to convert? Don't you WANT people to change theier minds and vote conservative? After all, Reagan himself was at one time a democrat.
Just wanted to clear the air, MM. I think it took courage for you to admit you voted for Jimmah Carter in 1976. I commend you for expressing yourself in that way here on Free Republic.
In 1976, I voted for Gerald Ford and regretted that decision ever since. I wanted Reagan and campaigned in several states for him. Ford won by a whisker. That is history. That was then and this is now. Lets not make a similar mistake again in 2008. Lets go for a conservative candidate who can give us MOST of what we want.
As you know, I haven't chosen anyone, yet. And I've only ruled out supporting Giuliani. So the door is pretty much open at this time. I'd love to see Gingrich get in the race. We shall see.
