In truth, Romney desserted the convention because of their refusal to adopt a strong civil rights platform. That decision to abandon the civil rights principles that had been the backbone of the GOP for over a century would permanently alienate the African-American vote away from the GOP.
George Romney was right. Sadly, Barry Goldwater was wrong.
Really? He made of the entire convention a dessert?
That's a lot of whipping creme and Maraschino cherries!
