Dads Old Tapes: '1980 Commercial- Vote Republican For a Change'

Source:Dads Old Tapes- this is a very good Republican Party commercial.
"Democrats have run out of gas!

Gotta say this was a very well done ad - considering how 1980 would be the last year a Democrat would be in the white house until 1993."

One of the funniest political commercials I've ever seen. There's nothing that I disagree with in this commercial. The Democratic Party controlled the entire Congress (House & Senate) from 1955-81 and controlled the Congress and The White House with President Jimmy Carter, from 1977-81. 

The Democratic Party accomplished a lot of good things when they were in complete control in the 1960s, but by 1978-79, they were running out of ideas, if not completely out of ideas, at least as far as policies that would work and were popular. And the country was in really bad shape by the time 1980 came around. And the country was ready for a change in leadership both in The White House with Ronald Reagan, but in Congress as well, with Republicans winning back the Senate for the first time since 1955 and picking up 30 seats in the House.
