"Hardliners"? I believe there are those in the Republican Party who would like to do as you say, but what are today "hardliners" in that party would be confronted with a choice they don't want to make: keep using Reagan as the touchstone of conservatism (in the way Sarah Palin does, nearly drooling at the mention of his name), or acknowledge that Reagan -- who, for instance, appealed quite eloquently for an increase in the debt ceiling (you can find the quote in an earlier post of mine) -- would not pass muster in the Tea Party world.
