Nah, I'm beginning to think Hillary fulfills the role of Nixon more than anyone else - lost eight years ago, makes a comeback by being the voice of reason in an era of yelling, screaming. Trump is claiming the mantle of the "silent majority" but really Trump's crew is the one screaming and shouting. Clinton could provide that "silent majority" address easily (though obviously updated for the liberalism of the Democratic Party and the times we live in).
Trump obviously fulfills the role of Wallace. The question is - who is Humphrey? I guess Romney, as an elder party figure who gets no respect this time around.
I think that we are seeing what would have happened if Dems would have nominated Wallace instead of Humphrey.
