Hard to say. I'd pick Goldwater as 'most likely', but a lot of the might have been pretty good:
Hughes, Smith, Landon, Dewey, and Dole, to be exact, maybe Parker, Willkie, Cox, or Davis although i think they resonate 'mediocre'.

Willkie could have had a fun sex scandal or two, depending on exactly when he became President...

Oh, can someone translate what Boss Tweed said? Who is "Kjeety" anyway? Tongue

I think it was something like "Look, I drink alcohol and I want everyone to know so I can look cool".
