It was a tradition in France, with Mitterrand and Chirac both losing twice before being eventually elected. This tradition is probably gone, now (though Royal attempted to run and failed miserably in the primaries).

Quote from: One nation under Zod on July 02, 2012, 11:26:23 AM
Willy Brandt: lost in 1961 and 1965, won in 1969 and 1972

Helmut Kohl: lost in 1976 (and also in 1998 Tongue ), won in 1983, 1987, 1990, and 1994

I am still amazed by how long Kohl managed to hold on as Chancellor.
