re: #121 Obdicut

If Bush rather than Clinton had won, the GOP might be a lot more sane. A GOP president re-elected after raising taxes might have made them a lot less fiscally stupid.

I always wonder what would have happened if Ford had won in ‘76 personally. Ford seems like he was a good guy and one thing I give the man major props for is not acting like a jerk when his Supreme Court pick became more liberal than expected. Eisenhower and H.W Bush were none too happy and showed it when Warren and Souther became more liberal than expected. Jerry was class when it came to John Paul Jones’ Supreme Court career.
