Ron Reagan: Sarah Palin is 'a soap opera'


Sarah Palin may think she’s the political heir to Ronald Reagan, but one of his actual heirs says she’s got it all wrong.

“Sarah Palin is a soap opera, basically,” Reagan told The Associated Press. “She’s doing mostly what she does to make money and keep her name in the news.”

The left-leaning younger Reagan who has been a recent media fixture as he promotes his book, “My Father at 100,” said he doesn’t see similarities between his father and Palin, and doesn’t take her seriously. “She is not a serious candidate for president and never has been,” he said.

5. Haha! I had that same thought!
Creepier still is that one of my great-grandmothers looked exactly like Nancy R... so Ron the Younger reminds me of my great-grandmother! Yikes!

I do like him, though. I loved that he became a dancer too. He is great when he does radio.

4. Funny that he mentions soap
Because, every time I see Palin on TV, I feel like I have to take a shower.

6. I would say she's more of a
hate-spewing, ignorant train wreck, but I can live with soap opera, simply because I :loveya: Ron Jr.

8. Alex, I'll take delusional comments for $1,000. please.
"You have to give the woman credit - with all of the vitriol and muck being thrown at her by the "Professional Left", the "Rabid Left" and every rank and file Statist in the land - Sarah Palin continues to school you all on the content of character while demonstrating the strength and courage of a lion."

:rofl:
