Look to 1976 Steve, that was the defining contest. Guys like Hunter did support Reagan, the rest supported? If they supported Reagan over Ford Fred/Mitt/Rudy are kind of quiet about it.

Only two senators in 1976 backed Reagan in the primary: Laxalt and Helms. I don’t think Reagan had even a dozen U.S. House members for him either. The establishment was solidly for Ford, including then sophomore Rep. Trent Lott.
