Who ran a better campaign?

Bush won without help from foreign adversaries.

He had more than enough help from Jeb in FL and the Supreme Court.

Except that the pundits called the state too early and probably discouraged a lot of votes in Oregon, Wisconsin, Iowa, and New Mexico that would've given him those states even if Gore did win Florida.

And that assumes that Bush wasn't going to win Florida anyway.

I imagine that the Media and Pundits calling the primary election for Obama mid-way through the 2008 primary despite the fact that Hillary was catching up hurt Hillary even more.

Nelson won his senate race pretty easily.

Bush ran against Peace, Prosperity, and sort of ran against Incumbency and won.  Trump was lucky to run against an opponent  that was almost as hated as he himself was/is, and Hillary was in some respects the Thomas Dewey of our times, in a sense that her campaign took so much for granted.  So, that means Bush gets my vote.

This is funny, you have posters constantly saying that it should be taken for granted that Hillary would've lost to a normal republican, and the bulk of the other republicans themselves were also running on that assumption, all they needed to do was engage in some empty flattery and that was enough to win. The only exceptions to this may have been Christie and Cruz who wanted to run more aggressive campaigns against Hillary.

By the way, it should be noted that Hillary changed her entire electoral strategy specifically because of Trump.
