Reagan punk Carter in 1980 so bad that Jimmyyyy had to conceede the defeat at 5pm pst Wasn't it earlier than that? I'm in Boston, and as I recall I was just getting in from work and the phone rang. It was my sister, and I told her I was just going to turn on the TV for coverage; she said, "Reagan won!" I couldn't believe it!

Oh, my...bless those fine people. They are calling out "We love you Mrs Reagan".
She nods and gracefully acknowledges.
My daughter and her friend burst into applause with the crowd!

This is genuine affection for the Reagans.
Poor John Kerry. Where is his camera crew?

applause at a funeral? Applause is a sign of respect.
I remember seeing Pope Paul VI being applauded as his body was taken into St. Peter's for burial.
