This precedent may seem like a toss-up, but two key facts have been ignored. The first is that Clinton, like Truman, has only one daughter, while Bush, like Martin van Buren, has four sons (and a daughter as well). That gives Clinton an edge on the Truman claim and makes Bush more like van Buren--who, by the way, lost his bid for a second term...
...remains ahead in many states -- such as Pennsylvania, Ohio and Missouri -- that Democrats have failed to carry since 1976.
