Not quite a landslide, indeed.

Look at the millions McCornball had to spend just to get that 59%. Not to mention the fact that we/he had no well known, well funded, well organized candidate to go up against him.

What is the potential now for the Dem to win with a Clintonian plurality if Dems can put a lot of money into a libertarian candidate (like Va. governor)?

Lyndon B. Johnson got 59 percent in the general election of 1960 against John Tower, who gained exposure for the special election of 1961. The big beneficiaries of Cornball’s success are McC and Graham.

The press declared Eisenhower’s 55 to 56 percent in 1952 a “landslide”.
