1. I don't think she will.
She's been too big a Pug stooge for too long.

And no, I can't see the pic.

3. It would be great if she did!
Now that the freepers and the right wing hate her, I think it would be excellent.

And no, I can't see the picture.

But why do YOU think she would endorse Kerry?

7. Because, she wants to find a cure for terminal diseases, right?
Edited on Wed Jun-23-04 09:58 PM by Race4Peace
like alzheimers and parkinson's. The only way to do that is to use stem cell research, right? and bush is in the way of that, and Nancy doesn't care who gets in her way(as far as I've heard, anyway). And doesn't Kerry support stem cell research?

Besides, if she wants to start finding a cure, and not 4 years from now, that means that the GOP needs to get out of the White House in January. The best way to do that to the GOP is to wreck it, by having the most right wing-ish former president's wife endorse someone who's anything but!

Anyhoo, doin' stem cell research and getting bush out of the white house is the best way for reagan to be avenged. that's something she'll probably wanna do, possibly at all costs. I mean, they loved each other so much...

9. I keep remembering Ollie North
She didn't endorse Robb, but she trashed Ollie. I could see her trashing *. Her son and daughter might push her to denounce the chimp's policies.

10. There's no way she will endorse anyone. She needs to grieve
Let her be alone for awhile. Ron Reagan has said all that needs to be said.

12. I don't see her endorsing Kerry but...
....I see her telling the GOP to stop using her husband after they refused to endorse Stem Cell Research

That, I see!

14. Nancy Reagan looks out for one person:
Nancy Reagan. She knows what side her bread is buttered on.

There's no way she's going to endorse the better candidate, if it means turning her back on the society she so doggedly pursued her entire life.

15. Not sure if this is a serious thread . . .
but I'll offer an opinion anyway. NO! Nancy Reagan is a Republican, and she would not endorse Kerry. She may well, however, decline to support Bush both because of his position on stem cell research that could lead to new therapies for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's and other degenerative diseases, and also because of a reportedly fundamental dislike of his family.

I just hope THEY (Bushco) leave her alone with her grief, and with her focus on an Alzheimer's cure developing sooner than later.

16. I have to disagree
It would be nice though. I'll be happy if she and Ron Jr just keep pointing out how Shrub is no Reagan

19. Maybe a non-endorsement endorsement...
She might withhold an endorsement of W, which some could spin as a vote of no-confidence... either that or maybe she'll use it as blackmail.

27. Agree. Her silence will deafen.
Grief and weariness aside, she is still a very strong-willed person.
