Is the election happening in 1988? If so, Reagan would win. Under most other circumstances after 1988, Clinton would win, and that's the bottom line. No matter how much you view Reagan as a savior, the truth is that Clinton is more popular with the American populous. Sure, Reagan is more popular among Republicans than Clinton is among Democrats, but Clinton's overall popularity is higher because, as a politician, he was way less polarizing. And of course there are plenty of other reasons, but I needed to highlight that one in particular. But I'm not going to get into this too much. Because as much as you pretend to want to have a diplomatic discussion, and as cute as your pleading is, I know as soon as I start to lay out my points you will just start making obscene partisan nonsense comments and I will be annoyed again.

For future reference, a good idea when you post hypothetical match-ups with maps is not to post your own map in the first post where you pose the question, because, regardless of your intent, it basically comes off as you asking and answering your own question and asserting your opinion as fact. Wait for a few people to respond to your question, then post your map. You'll get a lot more activity on your threads that way.
