Ms. Cupp is wizened? Look up the word, then look at a picture of her. Whatever else you might say of her, wizened she is not.

[Gaffer]

I don’t have to look up the word - I used it. I didn’t believe that. Facetious sarcasm. She’s a pup and not even a thoroughbred one at that.

[CincyRichieRich]

You can’t fix stupid.

S.E. Cupp’s viewpoint here, is stupid.

I could see some Perot comparison, but not Carter.

I hope Trump isn’t a fraud at the end of this, and if so, I hope Cruz can take it and run with it to the finish line.

“this abortion of words”..... I’m using that!!! Love your post, BTW!

[lostboy61]

Trump takes a better crap every morning than Jimmy Carter.

Brain cancer. He’s 90 years old

She attended Cornell. That should say it all. She is stupid.

Is Donald Trump the Jimmy Carter of 2016?

Is this article written by another Dan Rather type junk journalist?

==

Too many of these journalists, commentators, pundits and even politicians try to apply moral equivalence. They have to come up with something, because many of them get paid by the word.

Then, there is Obama who doesn't know whether he is Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Truman, Reagan, Daffy Duck or the Cookie Monster.

[Kaslin]

Why yes, S.E. (whatever the hell that stands for)

Sarah Elizabeth

Most replies from the readers are negative and rightly so

[Colonel_Flagg]

Well, they both identify more as Democrats.

[ConservativeInPA]

Terrible writing.

[Biggirl]

Rather the Reagan of 2016?

[JediJones]

One Cupp. No brains.

[Kaslin]

It still is, or are you calling Katie Pavlich, Professor Mike Adams, Dinesh D’Souza, David Limbaugh, Larry Elder, Mike Gallagher, Doug Giles, Dr Thomas Sowell or Dr Walter E. Williams just to name a few liberals? Actually you can count the liberals whose articles appear in Townhall.com on your fingers

[Kaslin]

You got that right.

Of all of the Presidents of my lifetime, I thought Gerry Ford was the most likable. He seemed to be a genuinely nice guy. His girls were hot too (to a 15 year old boy.)

And I don’t think he would have EVER run for President in his life. He wanted to be Speaker of the House.

And he went gently into the good night.

S.E. Cupp, George Will’s twin sister. LOL!

[Demiurge2]

And if Trump had wheels, he’d be a bicycle. This article seems like a weird reach.

[thulldud]

...the media's "favorable coverage of Carter and his campaign that gave him an edge, propelling him rocket-like to the top of the opinion polls"

Notice that the only part of the article which makes sense is quoted from another author.

And i remember some of that media coverage. Time magazine articles on the Carter campaign would have four-color spread illustrations, while two pages over Ford's appearances were depicted in B&W. Didn't take much headscratching to puzzle out which candidate was the Establishment's favorite.

The phrase “desperately reaching” comes to my mind...
