What about your "mean and nasty people don't win elections" comment? Two words: Ronald Reagan. Hmmm...be like Reagan or be like Clinton...such a tough choice.../s

So from now on the only two personality types that can will national elections will be a clone of one of the above?
Your statement itself proves that either can win.
What's your point?

[Mr. Silverback]

My point is that Bill Clinton was despicable, mean and nasty and insulted his opponents with things they weren't guilty of. Ronald Reagan was about ideas and never slurred his opponents.

Yes, I know you're thinking I've proved your point for you, but do you want to be Bill or Ronnie? Also, which one of those guys won two landslides and which one won two elections where well over 50% of the country voted against him?
