I think just the opposite, this speech may well have lost the election for them.”
Can you elaborate on that? I didn’t watch it (like I could stomach it...). And Rush certainly feels same as you. But I’d still like some details....just what was it about the speech that turned off real America?
I can elaborate a bit...remember in 1980, The Swimmer bitterly opposed Jimmy Carter for the nomination.....Kennedy’s speech was the highlight of the convention, it was probably Kennedy’s best speech ever...But, he never mentioned Jimmy Carter by name....and most people came out realizing that the wrong guy was nominated. A lot of people think that speech went a long way towards dooming Carter, as the rift between the two was made quite clear during the convention.....Carter and Kennedy truly despised each other all the way to Ted’s passing.
