At the end of the day, no one cares about foreign policy.
Kerry ran on foreign policy in 2004 and still lost. Gore lost. McCain ran on the Iraq surge and lost. GHWB ran as the Iraq winner and lost. Dole ran as a ww2 veteran and lost.
That's one of the dumbest posts I've ever seen.
1.) Economy sucked in 1992.
2.) Dole lost because the economy was booming, there were no foreign problems, and Clinton was popular.
3.) Gore lost by pushing on foreign policy? Uh...no.
4.) The war wasn't unpopular in 2004 (as in, it was still pretty divided in polls).
5.) War was very unpopular in 2008, and the economy became the main issue after Lehman.
