Are Clinton and Obama courting the Reagan Democrats in California
with all this talk about loving Reagan? Thats my best guess as to what is going on as I have heard a lot of California Dems like Reagan. I suspect both of them actually think Reagan was a ass.

3. Obama never said he agreed with the policies of reagan
Agreed it was a piss poor example to talk about change using reagan as an example

I also agree that both candidates would not agree with reagan's policies

5. Welcome to Scorched Eatch
Clinton is courting anyone with a breath in their lungs that will get her elected.

She will throw the base under the bus the minute she is sworn in just like Bill did, but no worries -- there is nothing to see here. She knows whats best for us even if we don't.

:hug:

6. Yes
I posted that days ago.

The Reagan comments Obama made play very well in California.

7. If I recall RR won 49 states in 1984 (ironic year)
Including California. He turned this CA county from blue to red and it has remained red ever since. So he must have had some nominal Dems voting for him. Maybe?
