Taft might be better able to rally conservatives but would lose moderates and indies. Truman wouldn't be picked in 1940 because he was still the Senator from Pendergast, an opinion which FDR and the Dem establishment shared. Plus he had an excruciating primary which he only won by a few thousand votes.
