MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Former Vice President Walter Mondale, a liberal icon who lost the most lopsided presidential election after bluntly telling voters to expect a tax increase if he won, has died. He was 93. Mondale’s family says he died Monday in Minneapolis.

Same here. I never thought he was still around.
I’m devestated.
Thought he died years ago.
Was thinking the same :- /
First thought was....again?
Is that bad?
May he RIP and stop voting.
Theirs was the first presidential ticket I voted for as a naive young man getting ready to join the Air Force. By the end of my hitch, my entire worldview had reversed and I voted for Ronald Reagan.
> Decent man. This was back when you could hate a man’s politics, but at least he was not a raging lunatic. <
Well said. Compared to Maxine Waters and AOC, Walter Mondale was George Washington. You could disagree with a liberal like Mondale, and then later on go have a friendly beer with him.
No more. Today’s liberals will scream at you, and call you all sorts of names (you’re a racist, a sexist, etc.). Having a friendly beer with any of them would be out of the question.
Proudly voted against him in 84 but must say he was nothing like the America haters of today, he was a vet. RIP.
WHAT MAKES YA THINK HE DIDN’T?
There’s not one single insane Democrat demand today that Mondale wouldn’t get behind. He is a loyal adherent to Satan.
Our problem now isn’t Democrats liking Democrats. Our problem is Republicans supporting Democrats and the progressive agenda.
The Democrats love to throw a huge funeral. The media will blow this up
RIP.
My first Presidential election was in ‘84. Though a Minnesotan, I voted for Reagan.
I voted against Mondale every time he was up for re-election to the board of directors in a company I owned shares of.
In 2002, I voted against him when he ran in the special election after Paul Wellstone’s death in a plane crash.
After he lost the special election some wit said well he can finally say he lost in all 50 states now.
He’ll still be voting.
He was with Roman Puchinski when the Alderman pushed me off the elevator.
Watching the demonstration/celebration from the podium after being nominated, he turned to a union thug at his side and said ‘Look at them..we’re going to tax their asses off!” Nice guy.
Wish Carter would reduce CO2 emissions. If all liberals immediately ceased CO2 emissions, we would have a better world.
Good riddance to Mondale! Is that harsh? I don’t care.
Yup. “Grits and Fritz... give me the sh*tz...
Let the games begin!
