124. Definitely Reagan was the tip-off
Particularly so close after Watergate. After Watergate, I actually thought that I would never see another rePuke president - boy was I wrong.
Then, to elect an image of a person over an human being was hard to take.
But nothing prepared me for 2000 & 2004. The day after election day '04 I felt physically ill.
But wait! There's more!
The country has gone totally brain-dead since then. We now debate the relative merits of a McCain and Palin against Obama and Biden!!
They are, by many accounts, tied in the polls! This after perhaps the most devastating administration in American history!
Look at the electorals - most of the country is red, even if the votes are close.
Many Americans actually like Palin - a dummy in heels. Hey it worked for Reagan.
The main talking points I'm hearing is that she's great beacuse she has the "liberals" all upset. No other reason - what other reason could she have - she's as dumb as a rock like the rest of the country.

Do Americans actually believe that this country will survive a Palin presidency?
Make no mistake about it. The U.S. will be a lone wolf in the world under Palin.
