So
far I've pretty much ignored the 2015 Whack-a-Mole campaign
season.
Try as I might, I just cannot concoct a believable scenario where Jimmy
Stewart is elected president after Air Force General James Mattoon
Scott ousts the Manchurian candiate president, and throws the lot down
a volcano. Only Donald Trump makes noise that interests me, and
because he's thus scared the crap out of entrenched Republicans there
seems to be a chance of removing some of the party's colon cancer (Boehner
Blastoma).
To wit:
6/14/2016
Since I see a parallel between Trump-Clinton? & 1980's Reagan
Carter contest—both being the worst president in history at the
time—Carter is now 3rd—I've included the polling history above.
In
that race Reagan (32%) trailed Jummy (39%) in early June/July. By
early August Reagan was up 45% - 29%. That lead that
dropped to 47% -
44% on election day. But, Reagan won 51% - 41%, winning all
but four
states (including Maryland), and DC. The term "silent majority'
was
born, and has driven Democrats nuts ever since (leading to the
Left's
war against the "Christian coalition." Anyway, bookmark this so you can give me
the raspberries after the election, or marvel at my political
prescience.
