Well, you got your pravda and you got your conservative pravda.
But don’t call them hypocrits.
And don’t think even for a second that they are influenced by anything other than cool objectivity.
For example, Romney opposed Reagan and even conservatism itself very publicly in 1992 (when he ran to the left of Ted Kennedy for the senate) and by actions every moment up to 2007, when he had a conversion moment. But Mitt is a good guy and he is a conservative now that he is running for president for the 5th year in a row, so it’s ok.
Newt, on the other hand…what a hypocrit he is. Two or three people have flown out of the woodworks to scream how he insulted RR to his face (pretty plausible, right?) in the 70′s and 80′s. Sure, Newt went on to build a conservative coalition that took the House for the first time in 40 years, and stopped Hillarycare, and balanced the budget, and cut taxes, and implemented welfare reform but..hey conservatives…did you get a load of what he said about Reagan? And that is DEFINITELY not ok.
