Many will likely vote for Obama for fear of being called "racist" if they vote for a white candidate.

Of course, unbeknownst to this Sharptonite victimologist who thinks that Herman Cain "can't carry the south" because he's black, Cain won the poll at the Florida Tea Party. The leftist mods around here don't like the fact that the Tea Party isn't "racist", so they deleted my last post which made this statement.

Dumbo does have that going for him.

Quote from RCG Trader:

It is fun when various breeds of libertarians get to talking. (yeah I know you are liberal right now AK but I can see you drifting towards the center)

Ford was a lame duck the minute he took office. Nixon should never have quit. He was turning out to be a decent President. That is why Reagan won.


Carter got in because Ford was lame. And he proved just how lame he was over time. Reagan gets in because Carter was lame.

But....the "real" GOP did not like Reagan. In fact they hated him. I think Reagan wound up breaking the record for the veto pen. In Reagan's time, they fought him every step of the way on every little thing. The MSM hated him, the blueblood GOP hated him, and the dems...well, no need to comment.

Mav pointed out correctly that history has elevated Clinton and Reagan.

Consider this.

Reagan's most remembered line:" Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

Clinton's most remembered line: "I did not have sex with that woman, Monicka Lewinski"

Just sayin

I respect your opinions RCG but I have to disagree.This is not the results of a hated man ,a joke of a candidate or simply because Carter was lame

That's what I call a complete rejection of liberalism!

Boy would I like to see a repeat of that.

Well, unfortunately given the "republican" candidates we've had for the last couple of decades it wouldn't make much difference unfortunately. The last actual conservative who got the nomination was Goldwater, IMHO.

Reagan conservatism is different than conservatism today. The GOP acknowledges this more than anyone. If the GOP manages to bring in Reagan conservatism,( which is really libertarianism) then they will be fine. But as long as they are on the socially conservative bandwagon, they are screwed.

Maybe it is I who needs the education. Hannity often calls himself a "Reagan conservative". What does he mean by that?
