Least polarizing, least relevant, most boring election?

[twenty42]

I think 2012 will take its place alongside 1956 and 1996 as years go by. It's relatively fresh in our minds now, but I think that history will judge it as pretty boring and anti-climactic in retrospect. It was one of the most static elections in American history with only two states flipping, there weren't any hot-button issues, and the challenger was rather boring and non-descript.
