So, if Reagan doesn't get the nomination and we're looking at the remaining six
if one of the three conservatives, then maybe things largely the same,

Yes, in 1996, he ran a mediocre at best campaign.. . . Dole sure doesn't. . .
Then who'd replace Bush? Dole?
And there’s the matter of Connally getting up there in years and probably preferring the Presidency or retirement over spending most of the rest of his life as VP to Howard Baker.
Maybe Truman reforming the tax code would help prevent the rise of movement conservatism. That the WWII tax code didn't seem to be going anywhere was part of why Reagan developed the views that he did.
