Well, of course for there to be a Ronald Reagan, there had to be a Jimmy Carter.
Alot of people think...oh well...what’s the difference...6 of one and half a dozen of another.
However, I do not think McKennedy is the answer and yes, many Repubs would sit this one out.
Mitt is the only hope for conservatisem in this election.
Reagan came close in 1976 before Carter was elected, and just had to wait four years. Who is the next Reagan who will come close this year and be ready 4 years from now? If there wasn’t an incumbent in the race in 1976 to be anointed with the nomination, it would have been Reagan instead. Wide open field this year and no Reagan in sight.
