With the economy booming and if U.S. involvement in the war was over, and the nation calming down, Reagan would have been harder-pressed to overcome the Keynesian conensus that still existed in 1972. Remember Reagan lost the 1976 GOP primary to Jerry Ford in both Kentucky and Tennessee. Reagan would have had Democratic fatigue and his charisma going for him, but other than that surprisingly little.
