I have always loathed Carter as a phony. That is why I cast my first vote for Gerald Ford (I was too young to vote for Reagan in the primaries). Lots of people, including Howie Carr, made the mistake of voting for Jimmuh, but not me.

Of course, as I had not made the mistake of voting for one Carter, it is obvious that I would not vote for the Jimmy Carter on steroids, the Messiah.

Carter got my parents’ vote because of his veneer of social conservatism and purported Christianity. They never forgave themselves.

I was old enough to vote in the election for his second term, and DIDN’T vote for this evil man. I voted for Anderson in my rebellious, “liberal” years of young-skull-full-of-mush. But I’m glad Reagan won.
