I don't think it is possible to declare Reagan a failure. We can debate Reaganomics until our ears fall off, but he managed to create the cookie-cutter template that every single Republican (and some Democrats) use to this day. He redefined conservatism and managed to convince a nation it was its natural state. Compare him to Thatcher, who on paper has a similar legacy; but instead set the UK against itself. Don't get me wrong, I hate many of the legacies of the administration: the "welfare queens" rhetoric, Iran-Contra, the Saudi deals, the Moral Majority and the support for apartheid comes to mind, but he can't really be called a failed president.

I voted Dubya, because of all sorts of reasons that I don't have time to list.
