He was not very good at it. Taft was an excellent Supreme Court Justice, and had good management skills, but could never get the hang of relating to people—the electorate or the Congress. He is the only major party presidential candidate to come in 3rd, and he was the incumbent. Administratively, he had not been a bad President but his poor people skills required him to pander to the right wing base of his own party and this angered his former mentor Theodore Roosevelt who ran against Taft in the Republican primary. Taft moved to the right still further and so angered TR that he ran against Taft as an independent in the general election. Woodrow Wilson won, but Roosevelt came in second and beat Taft handily.
