Almost certainly would’ve been Quayle had he been reelected as VP in 1992. Quayle probably would’ve picked Dole as an “elder statesman” to balance the ticket.

Depending on how close ‘92 was, had Bubba the Rapist lost, it’s almost a given he’d have run again, but would’ve been urged to pick someone else for VP (hence Moonbeam or Saint Mario).

Had Bush, Sr. been reelected, ‘94 could’ve been the total reverse. A frightening array of scum and villainy could’ve won countless seats in Congress and the Governorships. My Senator Sasser would’ve assumed the role of Majority Leader and Foley would’ve continued as Speaker. Sickening thought. With an open Governorship, Manbearpig might’ve run and won and used it as an alternative stepping-stool to the Presidency for 1996 or 2000.

If New Yorkers, behind William Marcy, had come to their senses in 1852, whom would they have supported at the convention? To oppose Pierce and the Slave Power

Meanwhile, slave-supporting Pierce, Marcy, & Lewis are just 3 northern Democratics with various statues and institutions named after them. They didn’t burn it all down yet?

Apparently, Biden doesn’t actually support tearing down the Founding Fathers. He might even be willing to preserve memorials to Christopher Columbus, the discoverer of the New World. But even then, he couldn’t bring himself to actually condemn the people yanking down statues. It’s all part of “responding to systemic racism in America,” you see. He could only bring himself far enough to blurt out, “The idea of comparing whether or not George Washington owned slaves or Thomas Jefferson owned slaves and somebody who was in rebellion, committing treason, trying to take down a union to keep slavery — I think there’s a distinction there.”

It's adorable that he claims to think.

I doubt after 4 losses in row the rats would renominate a loser (Neil Kinnock didn’t get another chance) with penis issues even if he “won the popular vote”, he’d have stiffer competition than he faced in 1992 when only had to contend with an ersatz frontrunner in Tsongas and a late bid by Moonbeam.

I also so see no reason why 1994 wouldn’t have been another 1990, I don’t see much room for big rat gains or Bush being that unpopular.
