Have you noticed how the wingnuts are skipping over Clinton to compare Obama with Carter? Kind of telling, isn't it? I'm sure they're just following their cheerleaders - I don't think Ten was even an American when Carter was president.

Given that carter and bush were/are unpopular presidents, obamas win should be as big as reagans was in 1980 but right now it doesnt feel that way. And Truman actually came back and won. Bush couldnt do that but surrogate Indy McCain has a chance.. 1980 Presidential General Election pop. votes % states electoral votes Reagan 43,904,153 50.7 44 489 Carter 35,483,883 41.0 7 49 Anderson 5,720,060 6.6 0 0 1984 Presidential General Election pop. votes % states electoral votes Reagan 54,445,075 58.8 49 525 Mondale 37,577,185 40.6 2 13
