I'm trying to get a feel, with no names on a poll, who everyone would support from both parties.

I want every post to have two Republicans (Pres and Vice Pres) and two Democrats (Pres and Vice Pres).

On the Republican side, definite. The Democrats have real primaries, though, for example 1968, 1984, 1988, 2004.

I didn't list all of the underdog Democratic winners. All 4 years I mentioned are since 1964, the only  recent year you mentioned.

Your just upset because you only know fractured history. Wink Just kidding of course.

Well I guess you could say 1980 because no one really thought that a Conservative Reagan to appeal to the GOp base which had called for a shift to the middle.

By 2004 you obviously mean Dean, and he didn't win the nomination so I have a few for you, and then i'll shut up on the issue.

1960, Goldwater and Rocklefeller try to take out Nixon. Goldwater nearly gets the South's support at the GOP Convention.

1976, Reagan nearly took out Ford.

1988, Dole nearly took out Bush.

While were at it let's not forget Buchanan in 1996, nearly upsetted the apple cart.

In 2004, 1968 and many of the other years the front-runner changed multiple times.

Nearly doesn't count.
