Seems to be an out of power party phenomenon. In the 2016 race the Republicans had 17 candidates: Jeb Bush. Ben Carson. Chris Christie. Ted Cruz. Carly Fiorina. Jim Gilmore. Lindsey Graham. Mike Huckabee. Bobby Jindal. John Kasich. George Pataki. Rand Paul. Rick Perry. Marco Rubio. Rick Santorum. Scott Walker and one other guy who’s name escapes me at the moment.
