New polling results are exciting, but no one wins till the ballots are actually cast and counted!

it always seems to come down to vibes.

Yeah, honestly, I find Carter to not have as much of a charisma than the ex-Hollywood actor-- Ronald Reagan. People tend to overlook the importance of charisma.

Also, another factor that this post hugely ignores was the failed Iranian hostage rescue crisis in 1980. That tarnished Carter's image as the incumbent president.
