Where possibility meets opportunity

Conservatives from across the state gathered at last night’s Reagan Conservative Society in Dallas dinner honoring Fred Meyer.

Texas Railroad Commission Chairman Michael Williams wowed the group, and talk show host Mike Gallagher served as emcee for the event.

In presenting a memento to Meyer, Merrie Spaeth provided some personal glimpses of her former boss, Ronald Reagan.

Keynote speaker was former Maryland Lt Gov and current GOPAC Chairman Michael Steele. His message was a clear one: Republicans should unite behind one candidate (likely McCain) and no Ronald Reagan clones were available.

In his remarks, Steele talked about his childhood, growing up in the inner city by his widowed mother who didn’t want government help to create her American dream.

“Where possibility meets opportunity, that’s the American dream,” said Steele.
