I would've been a wet in 1928. Hoover and Smith were both good candidates, and I dunno what I would've done. Probably vote for Smith.

I would've opposed Tammany Hall, supported "wetness", and wouldn't have cared much about his religon, given that I don't work too hard at being agnostic, let alone worry about what someone else is.

Paul, I don't think anyone would've accomplished much given Black Tuesday the next year. As far as corruption, remember Arthur cut the apron strings, whether Smith would've done the same is debatable.

But, as a northeastern liberal, only Tammany Hall would've been a turn-off, and I'm not exactly 100% sure of either candidate's stance on the KKK (I just can't remember).
