2000: Gore/Lieberman win.
2004: McCain/Giuliani narrowly defeat Gore/Lieberman (despite Gore having likely handled 9/11 & its aftermath better than W. did in real life) on account of Democratic fatigue, relentless right-wing attacks, & a sluggish recovery from the dot-com bubble burst.
2008: McCain/Giuliani lose to Hillary/Bayh in the wake of the Great Recession.
2012: Hillary/Bayh cruise to re-election against Romney (or somebody similar) because of the recovery & the fact that she's always incredibly well-liked & popular when she actually holds an office.
2016: Bayh is the Democratic nominee. Pretty much all I'd be willing to predict.
2020: Who knows?
