In a nutshell, Jerry Ford's pardon of Nixon poisoned him for many people.
Carter ran as a Washington Oursider, which has great appeal, even now. He also claimed to be "eglatarian."

He was the only President who ran against an incumbent who wasn't elected.
Also, the economy was terrible and President Ford was perceived by many as corrupt because he pardoned everyone from the Nixon administration.
