George H.W. Bush was VP. Gerald Ford was an incumbent, and even he almost lost.

As for Bob Dole, everyone else in the primary sucked.

Heck George HW Bush faced a pretty serious challenge himself, and from someone with no experience in elected office.

Dole was a sacrificial lamb.

The 2008 GOP nominee is not going to be a pushover, I think it's safe to say. Frist is not overly likely due to his lack of charm and natural speaking ability.

Look, Frist is not going to get the nomination if he hits Democrats with 500 Trident missiles. It just doesn't matter.. he has a nice resume but isn't a good candidate due to his apparent softness and forced, semi-condescending speaking style.

His odds of being Veep are similarly low.
