Total BS.

McCain is is the face of moderate Republicans. He ran away from the conservatives. His record of compromise with the liberals running the Senate is why he was so unpopular.

Palin is probably unpopular with the country-club Republicans in Washington. She resonates with the working man around the country.

The Democrats problem (and this is where this guy got his history wrong) was that they committed to Mondale way too early. By late 1983, the economy was quickly turning around. All then indicators were pointing up by late 83.

By the time the primaries were held in the spring of 84, the economy was roaring back. It was OBVIOUS that Reagan’s policies were working. The Dems were committed to Big GOvernment and as Reagan so aptly put it, “Government IS the problem.”
