"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals of our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all."
-- Ronald Reagan commenting "moderate" Republicans who didn't support Goldwater in 1964
There are moderates who are with you 80% of the time. And there are guys like McCain who can be counted on to stick you when you are most counting on him.
Sounds like he's describing McCain accurately.
Every one of these threads make me miss Mr. Reagan a little more than the last thread.
Especially with John running against the Ultra-Liberals Obama or Billary!
I love your tag line. I’ve made that promise myself!

My question is: “What would Reagan think of a President Hillary Clinton or President Barack Obama”?
GREAT READ, did you post that here on the FR.
If so, I must have missed it.
Thanks
Not much.
“My 80 percent friend is not my 20 percent enemy.”
— Ronald Reagan
Good quote, Robbin, thanks for finding it and posting it.
Reagan would have supported McCain on amnesty.
That is funny because to those Conservatives who refuse to vote for McCain in November over Obama or Clinton, I would say:
Going over the cliff, flags flying, is still going over the cliff. Ronald Wilson Reagan
Reagan was asked to campaign for Ford but refused because he thought Ford was too much of a Soviet appeaser.
No he wouldn’t have, since he didn’t support his own version of it not long after it passed.
That’s not true.
Reagan didn’t like the amnesty clause in simpson mazzoli, his primary focus was security. He said so in his diaries, he wanted to solve the problem once and for all. Nobody in their right mind would think that amnesty would’ve done that.
“I think Ronnie would keep to his guns: “Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican.”
I think mayhaps Juanito ought to take a lesson.
