Look up Reagan elections
That's actually a really good example of just how far the GOP has strayed from the days of Reagan. Reagan got 49 states. Yeah. Even all those fricking blue states like California, Massachusetts, and New York. Liberal strongholds, Reagan won them.
You don't see the GOP today doing that. Not even close. Not even when their competition is a complete incompetent like Obama! It's like Ali climbing in the ring and getting knocked out by Pee Wee Herman! The GOP is Ali with muscular dystrophy and a double amputation and a lobotomy. Any dipshit the Democrats throw in the ring will beat the GOP.
Reagan had superior ideas. The modern GOP is nothing but whiny bitches.
