Reagan Democrats were forged out of the economic disaster and foreign policy humiliations from the Carter Administration. With a fairly decent economy with low unemployment, I don't see a current parallel here unless it is on the WOT and the fact many Democrats may be embarrassed by their party's moonbats. Yet I haven't seen Thompson hit hard on the WOT... yet. So far that's been Rudy's primary issue.
It’s all Rudy CAN run on! He’s a gun-grabbing, pro-abortion, gay-friendly, pro-amnesty big spending liberal RINO. If he does get the nomination, Hillary will “swift-boat” him with hundreds of FDNY, NYPD & other first reponders that will claim he screwed up 9/11, that he was corrupt, etc...
