You are going to be sooooo disappointed. This is a man that hated fundamentalist conservatives and blamed them for his results during the 2000 presidential election and now he is putting on an act to appeal to them for this election because it's the only chance he has to win. He will end up being like David Souter on the Supreme Court which is the only reason I don't plan to have a meltdown (like some of you) if my chosen candidate Obama doesn't win.
In the spirit of disclosure, Michael Reagan is a right-wing talk show host, and very opinionated. You love him or you hate him.
He's also Ronald Reagan's son and is intimately in-the-know about the man many of us see as one of the greatest and most inspiring presidents we've ever known.
Michael Reagan is ruthlessly critical of politicians, on both sides. I remember when I was rooting for Fred Thompson I held a grudge for a long time about the comments Reagan made about Thompson, because Thompson had dubbed himself a "Reagan conservative."
"...I've been trying to convince my fellow conservatives that they have been wasting their time in a fruitless quest for a new Ronald Reagan to emerge and lead our party and our nation. I insisted that we'd never see his like again because he was one of a kind.
I was wrong!
Wednesday night I watched the Republican National Convention on television and there, before my very eyes, I saw my Dad reborn; only this time he's a she..."
Thanks for this post as I had not seen this. I have always really liked Michael Reagan and it is good that he sees his dad in Palin. I didn't get to vote for Reagan, too young, but I am a Reagan conservative and while Palin may be good she will never be the one that ended the cold-war with out a single loss of life or bullet fired. We will miss you Reagan, but thank-you for Palin!
The only thing that scares me is McSame. Lets see, 9/11, additional wars, lack of disregard for hurricane victims, housing crash, economy, etc. Yeah, it's been a stellar 8 years that you and McCain want to repeat.

09/11 is Bush's fault? You better blame Clinton for that one. If he had done something about bin Laden when had the opportunity, 09/11 would not have happened. Hurricane victims? The hurricane victims in the REST of the gulf coast weren't whining; only the ones in New Orleans. I don't think there was disregard for them at all. They were TOLD to evacuate and they didn't listen. That's Bush's fault? And how many resources were there to help? And continue to be there to help? Lots. AND a lot of the aid went to NO because they were the whiners, when people in the rest of the gulf were affected too, but HELPED THEMSELVES instead of sitting waiting to be rescued. Housing crash? That's not Bush's fault. That is the fault of the greedy banks who loaned money to people who they knew couldn't afford a house. NONE of that is the fault of the Republicans, or Bush, or any political party for that matter. The economy? It's in a slump, but that's the way the economy goes if you haven't noticed. It goes up, it goes down. It is NOT a recession. And cutting taxes and giving tax rebates, not raising taxes, HELPS the economy. Bush has been doing the right thing. If you have noticed, the stock market GOES DOWN when Obama's numbers go up. Investors are AFRAID of Obama getting in office. You wanna see the economy take a nosedive? Elect Obama and you will.

Palin scares you, doesn't she?
