This probably needs a popular centrist running in a very favorable environment. A subpar opponent would help.
McCain could have done if Bush's approvals ratings were 50% rather than low 30s.
Democrats have picked candidates who have ceilings. Kerry was an antiwar protestor from a very liberal state. Obama was a liberal activist from an increasingly liberal state, although you could imagine him reaching 55% against a George Allen type.
