Ronald Reagan, not a "liberal" or "progressive".
The Gipper still has a hold on American hearts and minds. Of five political labels meant to designate presidential hopefuls, "like Reagan" proved to be the most popular in a new Rasmussen survey, trumping a quartet of more familiar descriptors.The survey revealed that 44 percent of the respondents rated the phrase "like Reagan" positively, followed by "progressive," favored by 35 percent, "conservative" (32 percent), "moderate" (29 percent) and at the bottom, "liberal" (20 percent).
On the other hand, we have what amounts to a statistical dead heat between moderate, conservative, and progressive, each getting roughly 1/3 of the American people to view the term as positive when one takes into account the 3% margin of error.
And as far as progressive goes, I'm all for progress -- but what the left-wing is selling these days is hardly progress, but is instead nothing more than the same old failed liberal crap re-branded.
