Lincoln/Roosevelt vs. Parker/Davis(1904)

[Historico]

Ok...Let's say Thomas Platt hangs onto his grudge against Teddy Roosevelt and adamently oposes him for the Vice Presidential nomination. Platt offers up former Secretary of War Robert Todd Lincon instead, and the Mckinley/Lincoln goes forward to win against WJB in the general. Mckinley is assasinated as in OTL, and the country recieves its second Lincoln in forty years. Lincoln chooses the popular young Governor of New York, as his running mate to go against the Parker/Davis ticket...How does it turn out?

[Lincoln Republican]

This election would result in President Lincoln II continuing in office for another four years.

I cannot see much change in the electoral map, except possibly Missouri goes to Parker.  Lincoln would not have been quite as strong a nominee as Roosevelt.  However, the Republicans practically owned the Presidency in this era and Lincoln would have been a credible nominee.  Roosevelt would have been a good VP pick and would have gone over well.  The Democrats, of course, continue their domination of the deep south, but fail to break of out that area with very few exceptions.  In 1904, the voters really had no compelling reason to turn out the Republicans, and they would not have turned out President Robert Todd Lincoln.

The fact his name was Lincoln and the fact he was the President going into the election in a favorable time for the incumbent party and administration would only help his cause.
