Won as Ford/Baker in 1976 on Easy; I couldn't do it on Normal.  Sometimes, I swear these games are rigged.

I've only won Normal using Dole and Connally, FTR

[Mr. Smith]

Dukakis/Gore: 280 EV, 50.2% PV
Bush/Quayle: 258 EV, 48.8%

And I did it without a Solid South nor the handy-dandy Nevada-Ohio bellwethers, New Mexico and Missouri still came through.

Now where are the Clinton years and 2004?

How they added 1988 over 1992 is laughable, and the same is choosing 1916 over 1912,

3 way election and if not for Perot antics that election may have resulted in all three candidates with less then 35% of the vote

Defeating Dukakis is so easy, I crushed him 426-112 on hard.

I did better then 94% of the people who played as Bush on hard

Winning as Dukakis is much more easier, for me anyway. (Better than 90%)
