People, Romney ain’t no Reagan. Reagan won California and New York. Different time.
The demographic changes have been brutal for the GOP. There’s just no getting away from it.
Yeah, he won CA and NY, and the polls had him 4 down in Late sept...Seems they were off by a bunch more then, were they not?
Exactly. This is a useless comparison. Demographics is destiny. Things have changed to an extent we now have a different nation.
Yeah, Romney isn’t Reagan but Obama is WORSE than Carter. Most of the Reagan voters were NOT for Reagan, but against Carter. Reagan success was a pleasant surprise for most voters which explains ‘84. Daddy Bush screwed that up.
Nope, the real difference between now and Reagan era is that dependents on food stamps, unemployment, disability etc. are 5 or 6 times larger.
