br> American Council for Immigration Reform /p> p> McCain was wrong on immigration, wrong on McCain Feingold. Keating 5, remember them? Continues to be wrong about tax cuts. The guy ain't no Reagan. To make this supposition is pathetic. br> -- Mike Williams /p> p> "The similarities between Reagan and McCain begin with their extraordinary attachment to principle." The only, minor difference being that Reagan's principles were pro-freedom, anti-government and right and McCain's are anti-freedom, pro-government and wrong. I don't know his work, but I'm guessing Wallison is another Doris Kearns Goodwin, another historian as hero-worshiping masochist. br> -- K.F. /p>

I vehemently object to the analogy in Mr. Peter J. Wallison's article comparing Sen. McCain and President Ronald W. Reagan.

Mentioning McCain in the same breath in polite company is sacrilegious.

1. What made President Reagan a great leader was the ability to "truthfully communicate heartfelt ideas and policy."

2. McCain isn't electable because "Conservatives" don't trust this arrogant, directionless self-aggrandizing monomaniac.

3. President Reagan possessed true principle not contrived beliefs or media created poll tested principle.
