That being said, I can't remember the last election cycle where a Republican candidate enjoyed such favorable polling this early in the process. Eisenhower maybe?
‘I Like Ike’ ... Ike’s opponent was as broing as any man could be, so the ‘bump’ was building to peak all through the convetion. Adlai could not match Ike in ‘gravitas’, just like the lying, grafter Clintons cannot match The Donald in gravitas. He has CEO character; Hillary has Orange jumpsuit character.
