Belatedly realized (if you count Ford) that four out of the last eight sitting presidents have lost an election beginning in 1976. If count LBJ's forced withdrawal in 1968, it's five out of the last ten. — PolitiTweet.org

Too many political consultants in both parties will take that information as an argument that Harrison and McGrath should have raised and spent $300 million. Then there is Sara Gideon's eight-digit campaign surplus. — PolitiTweet.org

@DKarol Maybe a president's incumbency advantage has become an artifact of 20th century political history and is influenced by FDR's three re-elections. Telling that LBJ, Ford, Carter and Bush were all weakened by primary challenges that would have been impossible in an earlier era. — PolitiTweet.org
