But on a side note, why should I, as a partisan conservative, be all reved up about Romney?
==============================================
I suppose the answer would be because he might actually be electable.
Plane is right, Juniorbush is not any sort of conservative, compassionate or otherwise.
If Clinton was a "tax and spend Liberal", then Juniorbush is a "borrow and squander" militarist.
Olebush was a moderate conservative. Reagan was a mostly chickenshit conservative: Under Reagan the govermnent beat up on a tiny country (Grenada) and the American poor, but the government continued to grow.
Reagan took the solar panels off the White House and sold off huge amounts of timber from National Forests.
The only good thing anyone can say about Reagan was that ()1) he looked like3 someon'e kindly old grandpa ans (2) if they prepared it for him, he could deliver a speech pretty well.
