check this out, perfect example of the press about the inaugural race, and slew o'gold's role in the big day..

wow. superb find.

looking through it put the time in sharper focus for me. reagan/mondale and indira ghandi's assasination.

interesting read in the other sections of the paper. but i still think the interference played a bigger role in the loss than quarter cracks.
