I do. The last time the GOP won the general election without a Bush on the ticket was 1972, and they are 5/6 on those elections. And although these kind of truisms are usually meaningless, they are something donors and party officials take a hard look at when choosing their candidate.

The last time the Democrats won without a minority or Southerner on the ticket was 1940.
Guess we won't be nominating Sanders/Warren then.
