I voted for Mondale in 1984. I could not convince my girlfriend at that time to do so. I almost had her convinced, but her family convinced her to vote for Reagan.
If you could go back to 1984 and change your vote, would you still support Mondale?
I thought it the right thing to do at the time. I wasn't thrilled with Mondale, but I did not agree with Reaganomics. (I actually agreed with the Reagan Budget Cuts but not the Reagan Tax Cuts.)
I do remember at the time I used to argue with my liberal mother over the issue of the Nuclear Freeze. My mother was coordinator for her county's chapter of Common Cause and was incredibly upset over Nuclear Weapons and the buildup. I believed that we could not freeze nuclear weapons so long as the Soviets did not do so, and that our nuclear arsenal deterred war.
Reagan was proven right on that issue over time. In that regard, I would likely reverse my vote if I had to do 1984 all over again.
