"Reagan carried Massachusetts in 1980. Today,he wouldn't get 20% of the vote here."

He also carried it in 1984. Given that execrable RINOs McQueeg and Willard got 36% and 37.5% respectively, I expect if the MA electorate were presented with an honest Conservative, they would do better than that.

In my entire life I've spent about 12 hour in Tennessee...about 6 of them at Graceland.As a result I cannot rightfully claim to know *anything* about the state..including the political landscape.

OTOH,I've lived my entire life,except for my time in the Armed Forces,in Massachusetts and,as a result,I have a pretty good idea what this state's all about...including the political landscape.

Have you ever been to Massachusetts?

Now look at the stats for recent elections.Obola got 51% of the national vote in 2012.He got 60% here.

I repeat...if Reagan were running next year he's be lucky to get 25% of the vote here.And a prediction...if the Former Twelfth Lady is the Rat nominee next year she'll get close to two thirds of the vote here *regardless* of who the GOP nominates....while nationally she'll get around 50%.

Massachusetts is *different*.Some claim that the country's going to hell in a hand basket...led by California,But,in fact,it's being led by Massachusetts.
