The Old Switcheroo w/ Hitler and Mussolini

What would happen if Hitlers was born with Mussolini's personality, and vice-versa? I remember a thread like this w/ Lincoln and Davis, so I took the idea elsewhere in time, to WW2. What would happen to the Papacy, the Isreal situation, the war (if there is one), and the Cold War later on? Those are just some examples to speculate on.

If in 1930, Hitler most likely tries a second coup, fails and gets a long prison sentence. I doubt the German judges right wing as they were would forgive a second coup. Mussolini meanwhile turns from nasty but not all that bad compared to Hitler and Stalin to totally evil. However with a few exceptions his army is still, like the Italien one in OTL, not very effective. After conquering Eithiopia and Albania he attempts against France in 1940 but gets knocked back.

It takes three years to fight through the mountians of Italy and win the war. After the discovery of the slaughter of most of Italy's Jewish population, Italy becomes disliked for decades.
 
You mean developes right? Babies don't have much of a personality.
I wouldn't see either of them getting into power really.
As a ASB thread though where it suddenly happens it could be interesting.
