Nixon in 1960

A Democrat wins in '68 and likely '72. That means the GOP is likely to get stuck with the chalice that is the late '70's.

So the GOP wins in 1980 due to the Iran hostage crisis, the Second Oil Crisis and to the rising inflation at that time.

If the Democrats win in 68 and 72, and the GOP wins in 76, if things go at all similarly to our 1977-81, the Democrats would likely win in 1980, that's what I meant by my original statement.
