34% : "It was a much longer run," Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., said about the 1984 race compared with this year's.
19% : With many of the big party guns running for leader, Simpson, like Barrasso, opted for No. 2 and triumphed, only to be knocked off 10 years later in an upset by Sen. Trent Lott of Mississippi -- even though Simpson believed he had the votes to prevail and the backing of Dole.
