When I read the title I was hoping to read an intelligent op-ed, instead I find profound stupidity that is doing what the author accuses the GOP of doing. Reagan was re-elected in a historic humiliating landslide, and polls to this day as the greatest President post WW2. Today's GOP wouldn't grasp Reaganomics 101 if it bit them in the bum, and why they have degenerated into political clowns proving liberals do not have a monopoly on stupidity.
