When elected, he would become even better, given speechwriters and such.Alan Carubahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901162110385985193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196554259323465442.post-9267007593335539352012-01-12T13:57:14.393-08:002012-01-12T13:57:14.393-08:00Here is some interesting information from the 1980...Here is some interesting information from the 1980 Carter –Reagan election. <br /><br />Carter, depending on who you read, was either up 8 point; 6 points; 3 points, or even in October. Yet his approval rating was only 30%, and Reagan, the, great communicator, won by 10 points. That came to 35.4 million votes against 43.9 million for Reagan, with an Independent by the name of John Anderson taking 5.7 million votes; and who knows where they would have gone. <br /><br />However Reagan took every state except Hawaii, Wisconsin, Georgia, West Virginia, Rhode Island, Maryland, West Virginia…and D.C. Seven states.<br /><br />I thought that was worthwhile.<br /><br />Here is the problem. There is no great communicator now.Rich Kozlovichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13745960671409518147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196554259323465442.post-59455131097365713092012-01-11T22:23:03.453-08:002012-01-11T22:23:03.453-08:00Agree Alan - America needs to unite behind the GOP...Agree Alan - America needs to unite behind the GOP nominee no matter what.
