The Democrats were extremely unpopular in 1952 and any Democrat would be associated with Harry S. Truman, war hero or not. Just like in 2008.

Douglas MacArthur's presence on the opposing ticket would give it the military credibility to win easily, plus he was a highly visible foe of the unpopular Truman.
