He'd get no more than 45% of the vote.

Too many Americans wouldn't vote for an atheist.

He would have lost. Aside from being the Atheist, it would have exposed him as very untrustworthy and, probably, dishonest: he had made quite a bit out of his Christianity previously.

This also.

He would suffer a net loss everywhere, but things really get bad in the strong Republican states.
