Carter might actually be able to ride it out. It's not like Ford was particularly competent himself, and we all know how rematches usually end up. And there's still the Hostage Crisis, which created a rally-around-the-flag effect that really didn't break down until September or October.

And since I doubt Ford would've been as hard-hitting as Reagan was when it went downhill.

One thing's for sure, Election Night probably would've gone on much longer than it actually did.
