As I understand it, Regan offerred to armwrestle TIP O'NEILL, not Mondale, after being informed of O'Neil's comments on Reagan's age. The TV clip just shows Reagan saying "I'll armwrestle HIM". (A Reagan/O'Neil armwrestle? Tip's only two years younger, and in worse shape, I'd think!) Bob Schleicher ihuxk!rs55611
