1964 Presidential candidate Goldwater was the last Old Right conservative to emerge after the marginalization of Robert A. Taft by the leftist Rockefeller wing of the Republican party, who cheered on political-waif Eisenhower as their candidate. Ike’s contribution after eight years as president was to appoint Earl Warren Chief Justice as a political payoff, and warning Americans of the military-industrial complex he helped create.

Goldwater would be extremely popular on the right today. Anyone read up about the evidence Johnson and the Dems and how they cheated on that 1964 election?
ReplyDeleteSide story...did a basement rehab on a 80 year old home last year. Had paneling on the walls. While ripping the paneling out to expose the studs, one stud had a mint condition "Muskie for President" bumper sticker attached to it. Threw it in the dumpster.
A good range target! You should be ashamed....:)
ReplyDeleteI found a Jane Fonda exercise tape that my wife had hidden and I confiscated it. Still have it and will use it at some appropriate time. :)
