Yes, and Ronald Reagan was losing to that wonderful success named Jimmy Carter by 25 points in the “polls” at this time of the year in the presidential election year of 1980. ABC “news” and the other naysayers really got to enjoy Carter’s second Administration, didn’t they?
Yep, and they don’t like to lose. Remember Sam Donaldson’s “The American people have just had a tantrum”? But it wasn’t a tantrum, Sam, it was a spanking. :-)
The DNCMedia tried to pretend that Michael Dukakis had a Massachusetts Miracle and was polling competitively against GHW Bush.
