I agree, Clinton '92. Reagan won in 1980 mainly because of Carter's bad luck (having Anderson attack Carter at the debates while Reagan smiled, an anti-Semitic gaffe by a Carter supporter, etc.)  Obama won in 2008 largely because of Bush's extreme unpopularity. Clinton's centrist '92 campaign was masteful in that it had a David and Goliath quality: the farm boy from Arkansas versus the experienced internationalist.
