LOL! I do't think anything turned me against Carter as much as losing the Panama Canal (and there was a LOT...no Olympics, malaise speech, gas prices, interest rates, Iran hostage crisis). I KNEW at the time it was a doofus move, and events have proved me (and I am certain millions of other Americans) to have been right about Carter. He is a MORON!
He is a MORON! But the left's response is "But he's Our MORON!
