Ron Reagan on MSGOP -- he's excellent.
He's a panelist and asking some great questions. He really hammered Scarbag about stem cell research.

He's challenging Frank Lutz's claim about the convention being partisan. "What do you expect?" It's beautiful!

3. A partisan Dem convention
and the GOP is going to be non partisan in August? He's nuts and really digging deep to get something to criticize.

4. He's such a real gentleman. Obviously he'll never be a pol
RRjr was going after Novak for saying Teresa HK was a "scary trainwreck" and then Ron said, "Is this what we're coming to? Is it okay now to start attacking candidates' wives like this?"

Look his mom was a candidate's wife who took her fair share of criticism, so I understand where he's coming from. But honestly, the party of Mr Reagan's father has been pulling this shit for years. Calling Heinz Kerry a trainwreck isn't worth a fraction of what they'd done again Hillary at this point in 1992. They'd already demonized her before the primaries were over with--and did so with much harsher language than Mrs Kerry is taking.

So no, this is not where "we're coming to." This is where we've been for some time. It is a meaure of what a gentleman he is that he just hasn't been aware of it up to now.

just didn't really have the forum. Slamming Novakula is admirable.

The way I see it, Ron is asking the questions I'd like someone to ask rather than just let the sleazy partisan comments slide by like they're true.

Hey Ron:
