My list of the the 10 best Republicans.(Actually 11, since there's a tie.) In order of significance:
1. Abraham Lincoln.
2. Teddy Roosevelt.
3) Tie: Sens. Everett Dirksen and Jacob Javitz. (Both crucial in getting the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts passed.)
4. Dwight Eisenhower.
5. Ronald Reagan.
6. Earl Warren. (The most influential SCOTUS Chief Justice of the 20th century.)
7. Nelson Rockefeller. (The model of a modern progressive Republican.)
8. John Danforth. (My former Senator. The model of a modern conservative Republican.)
9. Olympia Snowe. (The model of a modern pragmatic Republican.)
10. John McCain. (The model of a heroic Republican.)
