“Jack Kemp lost me during a VP debate when ALGore said,” Jack is one of the few GOOD republcians.” Jack just smiled.”
It was even worse than how you remember it- Gore had just tarred Republicans as being a bunch of racists, except for Jack Kemp. And by accepting Gore’s praise Kemp was implicitly agreeing to Gore’s smear.
Kemp lost me and a lot of other Californians when he and Bill Bennett flew out here during the Prop 187 battle in 1994 and gave support to the pro-illegal alien side. A couple of self-righteous jerks who never had to live with the destruction of their own neighborhoods, but more than willing to inflict it on others.
Too right!! I did not mention that because it looks like over kill, but Bennet is still a casino kind of guy and he and NEWT will never be the soul of the republican party. Rush is insteresting as a speaker, but like Newt and Dennis Prager they are guys with so much baggage - despite their audience. Let them stick to the radio and lets find some serious polical leaders. People who are not ashamed to be conservative. ..Cantor and Palin are a good start.
