That is EXACTLY as I remembered it.
Yes, the Reagan debate was decisive, mainly because of its close proximity to election day, but so was double digit inflation, 21% interest rates, 8 percent unemployment, hostages, international communism on the march, malaise, prop 13 in california, and on and on.
Carter was a dead man walking since Reagan’s convention speech, if not sooner.
On election day in 2004, the exit polling had Kerry up.
I won’t be happy until all the lawsuits are settled and SCOTUS says Romney won.
