The liberal Republic

only way for this to get good is if Baker becomes President. Even if I like Ford, I just can't in good conscience support him on the principle of being Rockefeller's VP. I'm sorry, but this will backfire big time and considering what will happen soon (The Iranian Revolution was completely unavoidable following the 1953 coup. It was just a matter of when, who, and how), a lot of people will blame Rocky. Unhonestly, if I was a dem, I would be glad RFK and Muskie lost. Allows them to win 1980 in a landslide due to the eventual economic crisis and foreign policy collapse.

Well, there goes anyone defeating Ford in 1980. Sympathy landslide!

Oh well, there is more than a year before even the nomination is settled, and this is a difficult time on the world stage. I wouldn't take that for granted

If it was more than two years than yeah, I would agree, but this is cutting it close. People will remember Rockefeller when Ford is running for his first actual term and how Ford was finishing what Rocky started and thus overwhelmingly support him in his re-election bid. Unless Ford has the EXACT same blunders as Carter, something that is highly unlikely, He's going to win
