Their was more to Reagan than just that "blurb of blue". He also seemed to create this impression with Republicans that lowering taxes was ALWAYS good. They seem to just ignore the later tax "raises" that came under Reagan. There's nothing more popular than CUTTING taxes and the Republican mantra in later elections seemed to be based on that. Things have reached a fever point on that now in Congress. They don't want to raise ANY taxes and the Tea Party will hold them to it. So what has happened is that the tax increases are coming at lower levels. At the City level, the County level, the State level. In many cases they aren't referred to as tax increases, they are referred to as FEES. A new fee here, a raised fee there. The MAIN thing is that the vast majority of these new taxes and fees hit the LITTLE guy the hardest.
