The Good Dr. Luntz just pronounced that what Lott meant when he said a Thurmond Presidency would have avoided all these problems was that Bill Clinton and his loose moral standards wouldn’t have occurred. We could have avoided them with a Thurmond Presidency. IOW, Bill Clinton’s genitalia wouldn’t have become the cause of every modern problem.

The problem is that Strom was so randy, he’d put Bill to shame. Besides marrying very young women, he also is reported to have slept with a woman on the way to her execution. His behavior as a younger man was well known. If Bill Clinton’s moral failings were a problem, imagine if we’d had a segregationist serial adulterer as President. So the Good Dr. Luntz seems to have a Polisci degree without knowing any history.

Update:

From the transcript:

MATTHEWS: … because you?re an analyst of public opinion. We?re going to have a poll in a few moments about what?s going on here. He was asked by Ed Gordon, a very effective, I thought, interviewer tonight on Black Entertainment Television. What problems were you talking about when you said we wouldn?t have them if we?d voted for a segregationist back in ?48. What do you believe he thinks those problems are that we?ve avoided or that we?ve incurred because we didn?t vote racist back in ?48?
LUNTZ: It has to do with problems that we?ve had over the last eight or nine years. I don?t want to speak…
MATTHEWS: He said we wouldn?t have these problems if we had voted for Strom Thurmond in ?48 for president, a segregationist who ran against Harry Truman. What is he talking about there?
LUNTZ: I think that some of the issues that he?s talking about, quite frankly, and I don?t know if he would agree or disagree, but I think some of it has to do with Bill Clinton and the things that happened in the 1990s, the moral decay of the country. The acceptance of certain types of behavior. If…
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: (UNINTELLIGIBLE) come on.
LUNTZ: … you-if you…

So there you have it, voting for a man who had probably slept with a death row inmate, would have solved the problem of Bill Clinton’s genitalia.
