2012: Obama and Romney
2008: Obama and McCain
2004: Dean and Bush
This is the only one I'm going to go into; DEAN WOULD'VE WON. Hands down. That was not a popular war. That was not a strong economy. Kerry lost because he was not seen as decisive and basically portrayed himself as Bush-lite. Dean fired up crowds, got the youngs/liberals excited at the idea of throwing Bush out, and had a reputation as a very successful governor. People seem to think it would've been easier to paint Dean as a liberal than Kerry, and that's precisely the reason Kerry lost. Kerry didn't lose because he looked like a liberal, Kerry lost because he looked like a wimp. End of story.
2000: Gore and Bush
1996: Clinton and Dole
1992: Clinton and Bush
1988: Gore and Bush
1984: Hart and Reagan
1980: Carter and Reagan
1976: Carter and Ford
1972: Humphrey and Nixon
1968: Kennedy and Nixon
1964: Johnson and Rockefeller
1960: Kennedy and Nixon
I'm not going past that.
