Arnold:” I remember watching the Nixon-Humphrey presidential race on TV. A friend of mine who spoke German and English translated for me. I heard Humphrey saying things that sounded like socialism, which I had just left.
But then I heard Nixon speak. He was talking about free enterprise, getting the government off your back, lowering the taxes and strengthening the military. Listening to Nixon speak sounded more like a breath of fresh air. I said to my friend, I said, “What party is he?” My friend said, “He’s a Republican.” I said, “Then I am a Republican.” And I have been a Republican ever since.”
I brought this up to my focus group while having a few PBRs during halftime and one of the more left-leaning members of our contingent tried to tell me that Nixon never debated after the 1960 election. I had to fire back at him in your defense. “Are you calling this God-fearin’ man a liar?”
It got all silent and he excused himself to have some solitude before the second half kickoff. He ne’er brought the subjec tup again. You talk a bout a tense man, that’s ol’ Charlie for ya.
I stand by my Palin/Arnold 2012 position.
Alex, I agree with you on this!
Mike and Bryan did a great job.
Yea they did! We are proud of our interns! So far they have had over 3500 plays on their first show!
I’ll just leave this quote here:
