53. I agree--with your premise, your data, and your understanding of history.
JFK was barely elected, widely hated, and would have had a hard time being re-elected in 1964. Your premise (that post-Roosevelt Democrats don't get re-elected) seems to hold true, for the most part.

However, I think Obama will win in 2012. Clinton proved that the way to get re-elected as a post-Roosevelt Democrat is to not ruffle the feathers of big business. Obama seems bound and determined to do the same. Therefore, I conclude, he will be re-elected.
