Earliest Citation:
And yet he is setting out for Washington enshrouded in his caricature as a Scrooge intent on balancing the books at the expense of the needy — and as a warmonger locked on a collision course with "godless atheistic Communism." The former suspicion has mostly melted, given Carter's own conservatism and Reagan's demonstrated flexibility as governor.

—Gerald C. Lubenow et al., "Ronald Reagan Up Close," Newsweek, July 21, 1980
