...Gallup poll completed last Tuesday, ages ago by the speed-of-light standards of this race, found that among all American voters, Gary Hart was preferred over Ronald Reagan by 52% to 43%.

But, unlike Glenn, he does not believe that the Democrats should try to regain the White House by becoming milk toast Republicans. We also support Hart because he is now the only man who can send Reagan back to his ranch for good...
