I guess Dan Marino is a failure because he never won a

Super Bowl Ring.

Marino never went 134 games without winning, as I recall.  The Earnhardt fandom is something of a cult.  That is a the only explanation that accounts for their loyalty to such a loser!

While I would stop short of calling him a failure (win droughts are common in Nascar), I do think he is vastly overrated.    Of course, some of that comes from who his dad is and the popularity he carries.   Of course teams want him.  He fills seats and sells merchandise, regardless of wins.   I used to think he was very talented just did not have the drive, which caused me to dislike him vastly.   But now I think he has some drive, but just lacks the talent.  He is definitely not a top tier drive and never will be.  

Out of 20 races this year he has 1 win, 15 top 10 finishes and 9 of those were in the top 5. He's also 1st place in points. I ain't a big Jr fan but it looks like he's doing pretty good after a dry slump.
With the above said, I still think Contendah is better at picking drivers than he is at picking elected politicians

That "dry slump" (as you call it) was one of the longest  in sports history.  Actually it was NOT a true "slump," since "slump" typically signifies a period of failure following a sustained period of demonstrated success. Junior had no sustained period of demonstrated success; thus "slump" is inapplicable to his several years of consistent failure.
