A two-term moderate Republican, elected twice by 300+EV victories, much like President Eisenhower.

Comes out of the GOP Primary as a dark horse, ends up narrowly winning with about 270-280 EV. Presidency begins quiet, but things get active foreign policy-wise. Re-elected narrowly with 280-290 EV.

Elected President in a very close race against a formidable democrat. He enters office without a real mandate, but narrowly wins re-election. A 50-50 President after 8 years.

A liberal candidate who is elected by a 290 EV count in an unpopular conservative year. His policies never make it through the split Congress, and he is opposed by a stauch conservative which results in a landslide re-election defeat.

The first independent Governor of Georgia gets an early online draft into the Presidential race, which is between a Conservative Republican and a Liberal Democrat. Each candidate has 30% in the polls and the election is literally a three-way toss up. By the time October rolls around, Governor "King" is included in the debates and gets a boost in polls. On election day, he narrowly gains a slim majority of electoral votes, narrowly defeating the Republican candidate with the Democratic nominee recieving less support than expected.

President King has a quiet term and loses re-election by a narrow margin in the most boring election since 1996.

Alright, let me do a positive version for you. Smiley

Governor Lawrence Watson of Pennsylvania served four years as Governor before being re-elected easily over a famous Republican football player-turned politican.

Governor Watson declares his intentions for seeking the Democratic Nomination and face a few opponents. The main issue is the incumbant Republican President Butch Davidson's economic recession.

After winning a majority of the Feb 5th primary map, Governor Watson takes his aim directly to the President, and shoots up a double digit lead in opinion polls. He travels across the county, smokes the President on economics in the debate and wins a 350 EV victory on Election Night.

As he comes into office, the recession sinks deeper and the U.S. deficit grows huge. President Watson blames this on the former President Davidson's out of control spending. The President raises taxes in order to help fill the deficit gap, which he announces publically in a televised Oval Office address. His approval rating slips to 41%. By his third year in office, the deficit has become a surplus and President Watson gloats in the limelight as his approval rating shoots back to 55%.

After narrowly winning re-election against a moderate Republican Senator Alan Fanny from Colorado, President Watson takes action against the terrorist government of Al Stupidoa, which claimed the island of Barbados in the Windward Islands. Watson sends in 10,000 American troops and pushes the terrorist army out of the island. The President's popularity skyrocket's to 75% in approval polls. With a strong economy, and large popularity, President Watson leaves office as a good President of the United States, with the Republican President Davidson's Vice President Sam Timbers succeeding him.

A repeat of the Bush Presidency, sorry Naso.

So, always in history as the President who had overwhelming popularity and united the country following 9/11, who took the fight to the terrorists, got Saddam and kept the economy strong? Sounds good to me!

Governor Harry Nelson of Mississippi is elected in a landslide with 350+ electoral votes in a good Democratic year. His presidency is one of peace at home and abroad but foreign policy troubles growing. He leaves office after two terms as a good-average President.
