Basicly, if 41 wanted to run for the Republican nomination again in 1996, how would it go down?

He would probably win the nomination but lose the general election.

Probably results wouldn't be much different than RL matchup with Bob Dole.

Doubtful.  The only losing incumbent President who I think could have accomplished a Cleveland since Grover showed it could be done is Ford.

You should read the post before commenting. He was referring to 1996. Wink

I'd say that he would do about as good as Dole did in RL, give or take a few Electors.
