What a close and riveting contest
11:23. "Mitch McConnell,a county judge in Kentucky..."
Where it all began for the Mitch Man.
MITCH THE RIGHTWING SOCIALIST SHITHEAD
Funny thing about Vic Caputo, the anchor for KOLD in this clip: just four years before, he ran for a Detroit area US House seat. Before coming to Tucson, he had been a reporter for WJBK in Detroit for a number of years. He left WJBK in 1980 to run for Congress, but lost his bid.
It was like Moses parting the Red Sea when we got a Domino's Pizza in town (think it was 84-86)
This election is a high water mark for conservative politics.
You could make the argument that the high watermark for conservatism was in the 1920s with the landslide elections of Warren Harding, Calvin Coolidge, and Herbert Hoover.
@@APOCALYPSE_X-MEN
The crazy part is that two years later in 86', there was still a blue wave.
@@MrVedude I think Iran contra came out around that time and Reagan’s popularity fell off. He wasn’t a great president and I think he lacked moral judgment
@@raymond6646 what about Obama who had a gun running scandal (that the press suppressed) in Fast and Furious???
@@tbewin1z143 If this was about Obama, we’d be talking about him. Don’t pull a what about just because someone’s criticism doesn’t align with your views, that’s a straw man argument
You could make a super-potent drinking game by taking a shot every time Rather uses the term "Reagan's coat-tails."
DRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINK!
Whatever Jim Hart was smoking at 3:09, I would sure like some of that! :)
2:49:15 Surprised Wyoming hadn't been called by this point
It is strange. Calling CA before WY just seems strange
Did anybody actually think Mondale was going to win?
no, no they did not. everybody loved Ronald Reagan. even the people who got so scared when he was elected loved him after. Reagan won in less then 30 mins
Love the old commercials! Republic Airlines??
Crazy seeing news coverage this old
Was following along on the interactive map on the 270towin site, and based on the order of the states called Missouri would be the clinching state for Reagan according to the CBS count
HRTVFan2 And four years later, it was Missouri that did it for George H.W. Bush according to CBS (they beat the other networks with that call).
24:19 Andy Rooney needed a bigger black board
You're vote does count! Vote! Vote for Mondale! Vote twice! My God I amnso Democratic my head is going to explode.
I'm Democratic, yet if I were alive in '84, I would vote for Reagan.
Don't forget Iran Contra! lol
@@marioluigifun VOTE FOR RIGHTWING CORPORATE SOCIALISM WHERE THE CORPORATIONS AND TOP 10PERCENT ENJOY THE WEALTH OFF THE BACKS OF THE BOTTOM 90PERCENT. THANKS ROBBER BARONS. CORPORATE SOCIALISM
@@WillyTheComposerOfficial IRANCONTRA COCAINE SMUGGLING GATE REAGAN SHOULD HAVE FRIED LIKE A CHICKEN FOR THAT. TOW AND HAWK MISSILES TO IRAN AND COCAINE SMUGGLING INTO AMERICA. ELECTRIC CHAIR TIME
@@WillyTheComposerOfficial CANT GET A ABORTION BUT GIVE US COCAINE
Do you have Ronald Reagans victory speech that election night ?
I do.
"Joe Biden, a man who wants to become candidate for president or vice president in the future"... fortune telling? :D
+Acme. Nipp-on-AiR 52:57 And a "future comer" for the Democrats in Tennessee, Albert Gore.
And it was the last time, Vermont went for the Republicans :D
+Acme. Nipp-on-AiR Not quite. Bush barely beat Dukakis in 1988, by 3%.
biden the commie
Nah. Biden has wanted to be president since he was in the womb.
24:25 Anyone else having Tim Russert flashbacks?
KOLD-13 Tuscon used the same logo as KCOP Los Angeles
Yea TV station do that ABC 7 Eyewitnesses New is the same in New York Los Angles Washington D.C and a bunch of other cities literally down to the channel Number
At approx. 42:00 Bill Moyers looks like he's gonna drop a turd as big as LBJ......... Not a happy camper.........
These similarities to Donald Trump are eerie
At least Reagan won re election 😂
1:51:40...gotta get my one of them typewriters!!
Bloody hell Massachusetts. You’ve always got to be different haven’t you??
Kathy Randall was smoking!
Alfo?
Dan Rather was my favorite news broadcaster of all time.
1 44 50 The late Jerry Falwell
JERRY FARTWELL
2:52:58 I was a freshman at college watching this in the dorm lobby on the tv. When Rather showed the blinking blue dot which was Washington DC being the only win for Mondale, my friends and I laughed our asses off. We were all in our early twenties, didn't know anything, and totally bewitched by Reagan by then.
Of course, it didn't help that the Democrats ran a candidate who was so weak but that's what the Dems did back then. The people they chose as candidates had a good message but the messengers were sub par.
The only exception was Geraldine Ferraro.
Too bad that the only times that a woman has been on the ticket (once for the Dems, once for the GOP) was mainly just move the needle a little bit since they knew they were screwed.
+airdriver I never understood why the Democrats selected Mondale that year. I was only 16, so I wasn't too politically aware, but I remember thinking it was a bad idea to select the guy that *lost* last time.
LOL heres to hoping Trump can pull something even close to this on November 3rd
1:05:40
At 2:49.20...what the hell is she talking about? Jesus, racist much.
