Yes, he won against Carter in 1980. He wiped out Mondale because the people could still remember Jimmah.
Obviously. Never claimed otherwise. I was referring to the 49 state win, which was against Mondale. And Reagan wiped out Mondale not just because people remembered the incompetent Jimmah, but because he was doing a helluva job as President (with the exception of the debacle of pulling the Marines out of Lebanon).
