    Democrats would be wise to remember that Reagan's '80 convention speech was doom & gloom and turned out to be very effective.

        @GlennThrush it would be wise for pundits to remember that our country doesn't look like it did in the 80s.

        I believe it was both. Facts about Carter (doom) and hope for how it could be better.

        True. But a couple of big differences. The economy is better and, more importantly, the electorate isn't nearly as white.

        @GlennThrush how is it doom and gloom? pointing out carter's failures? reality does exist.

        I think he meant *perceived* as doom/gloom when it was just reality.

        Fair enough. I was talking in realities of the speech itself. Obviously it worked!

        Republicans would be wise to remember that Reagan's '80 election campaign was not headed by an unstable lunatic.

        Trump will be the ruination of the R Party, that's a certainty. He's using it to make it his own.

        I don't think so because I feel he'll be a one-hit wonder. Give the GOP time to regroup. #neverher
