“...who lost the most lopsided presidential election after bluntly telling voters to expect a tax increase if he won...”

Hell, he’d win in a landslide with today’s fools.

Think I'll broil a steak, for dinner.

Mondale? Hmm, spinach or broccoli? "Oliver!" is on TCM, tonight...

I don’t think that Mondale was as bad as Biden. Then again, that’s a very low bar that you could step over.

Mondale changed my life.

I never even considered a Rat for anything after seeing his ‘84’ campaign for President.

Good riddance.

And that was only because Reagan chose not to fight Minnesota, although it was close enough to.

I was never a fan of Mondale when he was Carter’s VP, but giving credit where credit is due, he did an excellent job as US Ambassador to Japan — at least according to American businessmen I know who operate here in Tokyo.

RIP Mr. Mondale.

Decent man. This was back when you could hate a man’s politics, but at least he was not a raging lunatic.

There’s not one single insane Democrat demand today that Mondale wouldn’t get behind. He is a loyal adherent to Satan.

Good riddance.

Hey. If it had not been for Mondale we might never had gotten Reagan. Despite his politics he seemed like a descent man. R.I.P. Walter.

I remember Mondale’s reaction, when Reagan remarked in the debate, “I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent’s youth and inexperience.” Mondale knew at that moment, it was all over.
