GOP possibles grasp for Reagan mantle, eschew Bush association

AP - Updated: 7 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - Ronald Reagan once famously sounded the call to "win one for the Gipper." Now, potential Republican presidential candidates are hoping that the Gipper will help win one for them.

In these early days of the 2008 presidential campaign, when politicians still are exploring the notion of a run and trying to fill out their political profiles, candidates are trying to glom on to a little of the luster from the Reagan glory days.

They seem to be trying to out-Reagan one another.

3. When the GOP candidates reach for Reagan they catch Herbert Hoover instead.

A so called Amiable economic exploiter still acts like an economic exploiter amiable or not so amiable.

Reagan and the GOP and the press should appear ashamed for their atrocious anti social policies.

You can pour cherry sauce on a ball of crap, but I defy anyone to eat such a concoction.
