From worst to best.

1. Trump 2016 (If Russia hadn't stepped in, he likely would've lost in a landslide)
2. McCain 2008 (Palin probably was the worst VP pick in modern memory, and while McCain probably wouldn't have won with anyone else, he certainly could have made it much closer with a halfway decent campaign)
3. Clinton 2016 (Even ignoring the Comey letter, the fact is Clinton didn't run as her own candidate. She ran as a combination of her Husband and President Obama...not a good place to be)
4. Gore 2000 (Gore blew a winnable election by ignoring several other winnable states at the expense of Florida...which he also lost)
5. Romney 2012 (A gaffe machine...but Paul Ryan was a good VP pick in my honest opinion)
6. Kerry 2004 (The flip-flopping was the only major negative about his campaign. Too bad it cost him the election)
7.  Obama 2012 (A couple of gaffes, and a poor performance in the first debate puts him here)
8. Bush 2004 (Ran a smear campaign to perfection)
9. Bush 2000 (Managed the Florida Recount perfectly. About the only thing he could have done better is played in more states ahead of time...but as he won Florida anyways, it doesn't matter)
10. Obama 2008 (Ran a practically perfect campaign in every facet, in both primary and general election...except for Reverend Wright, which he handled perfectly, IMO.)
