Yup. And Ronald Reagan was a lifelong Democrat at one point in his life. People who have finally seen the light are the most ardent in many cases. Mitt may be one of them. I believe he is. But I still don’t think he’s the best choice for Veep.

There is no comparing Romney to Reagan. Expediency and not principle has marked Romney’s political career.

At one time or another Romney has betrayed the Constitution, the Contract With America, the Republican Party and Reaganism. Hardly conservative qualities.

Romney is a phony.

“And Ronald Reagan was a lifelong Democrat at one point in his life.”


It makes a difference what decade something takes place.

Reagan starting to stir national recognition as a conservative in the late 1940s after long service in the U.S. Army and Reserves is different than Romney becoming conservative within the last 36 months after staying liberal throughout the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000, and even 2004.
