The following was released today by the Republican National Committee:

In An Interview With Tampa Bay's Fox 13, Obama Praised President Ronald Reagan:

Obama: "You know, I think that Ronald Reagan was delivering the right message at the right time. Because what had happened was I think the Democrats had gotten complacent, had gotten fat and happy. They thought you could get a government program to solve every problem. There wasn't much attention to how regulation might be choking business. And so Ronald Reagan came in and said we need to break out of the old ways of doing things and create a leaner, more effective government. That was the right message then." (Fox 13 Tampa Bay's "MyFoxTampaBay.com," 10/17/08)

But Obama Said He Has Spent His Entire Life Fighting Reagan's Policies:

Obama: "I spent a lifetime fighting against Ronald Reagan's policies." (Sen. Barack Obama, CNN Democrat Presidential Debate, Myrtle Beach, SC, 1/21/08)
