    "Wednesday night I watched the Republican National Convention on television and there, before my very eyes, I saw my Dad reborn; only this time he's a she."

    Michael Reagen on Sarah Palin, Sept. 2008.

    I was too young to remember much of Reagen, besides the decline period of Iran-Contra and the like. Today, it's interesting to see his son's comparison.

    All this trillion dollar borrowing we are discussing had better produce a backlash, at some point. My hope is it will, and Sarah Palin will be a part of it.
