re: #387 BongCrodny

If you think you’re cursed, you should get a load of some of the guys I’ve supported over the years:

Ed Muskie, 1972
Mo Udall, 1976
John Anderson, 1980
Gary Hart, 1984
Mike Dukakis, 1988
Jerry Brown, 1992
Bill Clinton, 1996 (hey, you can’t be wrong ALL the time)
Ralph Nader, 2000
Howard Dean, 2004
John Edwards, 2008

Yep. I’m that much a loon.

Nader was a protest vote. Had Gore had a real chance of winning Virginia, I would have voted for Gore.

The only one I regret, though, is Edwards.

My presidential votes:
1972 Nixon
1976 Carter
1980 Reagan
1984 Reagan again
1988 Dukakis (pissed off about Iran-Contra and the religious right)
1992 Clinton (still didn’t like Bush 41)
1996 Clinton
2000 Gore
2004 Bush
2008 McCain-Palin
I definitely regret some of these, though not Nixon. If Tricky Dick were POTUS today, he would already have gone to Tehran, where he would have stolen most of the oil, sabotaged the nukes, pilfered the palace silverware, and left Ahmedinejad happy and pleased to have been of service.
