1988 is what I voted.

Trump is Bush and Clinton is Dukakis.

Alternatively, I actually think a good parallel for this election is 2008. Followed by 8 years of an unpopular President (Bush 43/Obama), a dynamic candidate (Obama/Trump) defeats a weak and uninspiring candidate of the incumbent party (McCain/Clinton) - who ran with an awful running mate (Palin/Kaine) - in a huge landslide. Trump's margin of victory over Clinton probably will be similar to Obama 2008, (53-47).

Obama - and you guys have to realize this - is the new Dubya.

LOL what are you smoking?

Maybe Obama has the same image/favorables among certain Republicans as Dubya did among Democrats, but Obama is much more well-liked overall than Bush was at the end. Obama never went as low as Dubya did. The differences are many. I don't even know how you came up with this. Are you aware of Obama's current approval ratings?
