Say "1964." and those of us old enough might remember the appearance on Ed Sullivan's show of some little British group called the Beatles. But Chris Matthews recalls something else: the decision of the Republican party to nominate Mr. Conservative, Barry Goldwater, and his ensuing wipeout by LBJ.
On his MSNBC show tonight, Matthews suggested that Republicans are in a similarly reckless mood, and might well nominate a true conservative, electoral consequences be damned. And, oh yeah, Chris contended that the GOP would do so out of racist motives.

Why would he be so concerned ? The Dems swept 1964. He’s concerned because a Conservative would actually win in 2016.

Chrissy Matthews is so in love with Obama.

Matthews suggested that Republicans are in a similarly reckless mood, and might well nominate a true conservative, electoral consequences be damned. Because we've done so well with moderates recently.
Recently the Republicans have become the anti-Goldwaters with "Extremism in the defense of liberty is a vice and moderation in the pursuit of justice is a virtue" being their watch words.

When you cannot win ...... throw our RACE!
Most people are so tired of hearing about RACE. We’re race weary.

Miss “Tingle Down My Leg” Christy need not go back to 1964 to find when the Republicans nominated a real conservative. All he has to do is go back to 1980, when the GOP nominated the conservative Ronald Reagan. The result? Reagan won with more electoral votes than anyone in modern history. And yeah, the MSM swore that Reagan was going to get clobbered too. Lol.

Poor clown, desperate for attention.
Hey Chris, Would Republicans support Obama’s communist agenda if he were white?
I know, you’re just hoping you live long enough so you can call Republicans “sexist” for opposing Hillary’s agenda.
