Maybe that is happening again.
I did vote for Bush four times.
I compare it to 1988—Again, Obama is far to the left of Dukakis.
I compare it to 1976—He is like Jimmy Carter, with far less experience and far more corruption. Even though Pres. Ford was pro-abort, I might have supported him over McCain. I actually liked President Ford. I thought he was a competent administrator. Of course, I was only 20, so what did I know?
Where else can we compare? 1952, war hero Eisenhower against intellectual Adlai Stevenson?
In 3/4 cases the republican won. I predict a close victory for McCain.
