Although it is conceivable that Reagan could carry North Carolina and Virginia?and possibly Mississippi and Texas ?against Carter, it is by no means certain. Should he also carry California, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona, New Mexico, Indiana, South Dakota and Nebraska, in all of which he has strong but by no means unchallengeable strength, he would still be 117 electoral votes short of winning.

Wald's point is that this kind of dehumanizing architecture is getting us ready for space colonies, like...
Moreover, Goldwater claims J unkindly that "a lot of the same people who were backing me are just as viciously and strongly backing Reagan." In Arizona, Goldwater charges, some Reagan people threatened to defeat him if he ran for delegate to the National Convention. "I've never been a delegate, so it didn't matter a damn to me."
