re: #673 engineer dog

my theory is that american elections aren’t so much won as lost. and they are won and lost at the presidential level by persons, not parties

if democrats hadn’t had such unbelievably bad teevee performers are carter, mondale, dukakis, and gore, i don’t think this conservative movement would really have gotten nearly so far

I think I subscribe to your theory. There are some years of course that are better for one party than the other but I do think a lot of it comes down to candidates.
