For the last two elections, Dick Morris, campaign manager for Bill Clinton, has predicted landslide victories for the Republicans. Obviously, he was wrong. He was all over his website Dick Morris.com with videos backing up his position of a Romney landslide. I'm only going to bring up one video because it helped me see that Romney wouldn't win. His defense to how wrong he's been the last 4 years is, "When you get a man elected as President, then you can talk to me" my response is, "What have you done for me lately."
He compared Carter to Obama by saying this (I'm paraphrasing)
You have to remember under Carter, Iran held a bunch of Americans hostage at our
embassy showing how weak America was and inflation was so out of control that interest
rates went up to 20% so nobody was saving. Which is similar because now we have the
Libya debacle, which is like Iran under Carter and the economy is bad. This leads to a
conservative to win like Raegan did.
As I heard this speech, I said to the computer "Wow, we're nowhere near that now." Libya, the ambassador and three other Americans are dead. We just now need to find who did it. There's no hostage, no rescue needed, they're dead, it's over now we just need to retaliate. In Iran, we had to figure a way for them to release the hostages to prevent killing of Americans. Interest rates are nowhere near 20% and inflation is not a problem. Yes, the national debt is, but that's not the same thing and nobody has increased interest rates to astronimical levels or printed a lot more money in response to the debt. So, all that his video showed me was that America isn't bad enough for every day people to realize why we need conservatives like Raegan in charge.
Maybe after another four years of Obama, they will. Or maybe everyone will still blame Bush the way they do now. Time will tell.
