I was stunned the Eisenhower didn't really do too much better in 1956 than 1952.  In dealing with how much the candidate increased his percent of the popular vote, Bush 43 did better.

According to JFraud, Eisenhower won in a landslide. hmm

A 57-42 win in the popular vote and a 457-73 win in the Electoral College would fit most people's definition of a landslide, I think.

It fits mine, but 1900 isn't even close to fitting the definition.

I agree that 1900 wasn't a landslide, though it was not as close as 2004. So he should have said that 2004 was the closest victory ever for a Republican incumbent.
