I remember being deleriously happy on election night, 1980. I hated Carter so much - even at 12 I knew he was a chump. Between the long gas lines I would see in city gas stations (we didn't have a car but I was one aware kid!), and the national humiliation during the hostage crisis, I knew Reagan was the smart choice.
I was in high school in 1984, when Mondale got squashed. I went to Regis High in NYC, where the student body was widely conservative, and the teachers more progressive. Go figure! ;-) 49 state squash sure took the wind out of those square teacher;'s sails! :-)
I was at Vassar College in 1988 when Bush won - the general student population wore black arm bands the next day. Childish! Still, it was a good night.
I had the pleasure of working at a NY law firm on during election 2000, and that too provides some tender memories!
Liberals stink, plain and simple!
