Case in point.
Wasn’t Reagan once a Democrat?
Yup!
There was a time when Democrats were Democrats; too!
These liberal/socialist/Progressives we have today sure as HELL are NOT like the Dems of old!
“Case in point. Wasn’t Reagan once a Democrat?”
Yup. As was yours truly. People do change their minds. Those who don’t are better characterized as zealots.
We’re not talking about the incessant waffling on every issue ala John F’n Kerry. We’re talking about the occasional change of a few positions based on a re-examination of facts or premises. It does happen, and if its sincere and in the direction we want it to go, why would it upset us?
I’m not saying that we should throw all caution to the wind and support Scott Walker. Frankly, he isn’t on my A list. But we should tolerate an occasional and sincere change of position when its in the right direction.
