Your statement ties nicely into a column I saw today in the WaPo Metro Section (or all places), to which I will post a link in my next post. I thought that the column explained fairly well (without being nasty) why lots of us folks who did not worship Reagan saw a much more mixed message in his performance, economic policy, etc.

I wouldn't characterize it as a flaw of character, but it certainly wasn't a virtue.
