I haven’t even considered voting Democrat in my lifetime. I started out in the 1970s. Starting with George McGovern, their candidates have disgusted me every time. Starting with Clinton, the top ticket was just terrible every time.

Clinton
Gore
Kerry
Obama

Before them there was Johnson and Carter.

for over fifty years, that party has failed to loft someone decent. I don’t remember his policies that well, but Hubert Humphrey may have come as close as they got to someone you could at least think about. Even that may be an overstatement.

You have to have a very dark soul to be a Democrat. There’s just no explaining it away.

When I was a little kid back then, I remember my dad saying, "Dump the Hump!"

The only Dem I totally approve of was Grover Cleveland. What can you say about a president who was notoriously tight with public money and notorious free with the old veto pen.

Cleveland also really liked beer, cigars, and enormous platters of German food. My kind of guy, all the way.

I’ll give Harry Truman an honorable mention for his uncompromising anti-communism, even though he never met a spending measure he didn’t like.
