Description | Editorial cartoon shows a reporter questioning an elephant (labeled "Moderate Republicanism") who has been practically burned at the stake. The reporter asks, "How did you like the Dallas Barbecue?" At the 1984 Republican Convention, held in Dallas, that nominated President Reagan for a second term, moderates found themselves outvoted at every point and relegated to the fringes of the convention. Some moderate leaders questioned whether there was any future for moderate Republicanism. |
