I just read a story where Dukakis was +18 in July 1998 v GHWB

Sorry for the vanity, my first presidential vote was Reagan in 1980. He was polled a loser v Jimmuh. Is “Dewey beats Truman” the last time the MSM tried to be fair?


TOPICS: History
KEYWORDS: 1988; 41; bush; dukakis

Dukakis imploded with the tank picture and the debate question about supporting death penalty if his wife was raped.

Standard procedure. You would think they would come up with something new. Republicans in July are SO unpopular, you would have to be a moron to even THINK about voting for them. As the summer blends into fall, the polls close (always). Why? Because they were never that far apart to begin with. Polls from fake new sources are FAKE. D’uh.

Dukakis got a big bounce after the Democrat convention at was up a
By 17 at that point but went down quickly as the bounce faded.

Kind of wished Dukakis would have won after all in 1988. Would have prevented both Bush and Clinton from destroying the country.

Used to watch Wally back in the day on local TV here in L.A. He was a riot.
