It's a tossup. Bush 41 ran as a defacto Reagan, promising to continue his policies. He didn't, so he lost his re-election.
Gore was wary of running as a defacto Clinton. He had to walk a tightrope of continuing Clinton's economic policis, while at the same time trying to distance himself as much as possible from Clinton himself. Ultimately, he was unsuccessful, at least in the EC.
Their is no heir apparent in the GOP, while the Dems have one in Hillary. We (GOP) really need to cultivate some candidates with a realistic shot at carrying the White House, and no, Rudy and McCain won't cut it.
