I'm not politically savvy at all, but did the rest of the country laugh at Ralph the way we laugh at Ford?

Not even a close comparison, and Ralph was probably one of the most respected mayors across the country when he was here, especially with the work he did on the Olympics.

Ralph had a drinking problem, but he wasn't a buffoon.
