Why did Gerald Ford dump Nelson Rockefeller in 1976?

Gerald Ford chose Bob Dole over Nelson Rockefeller as his running mate in 1976 in response to pressure from the conservatives of the Republican Party, who did not like how Rockefeller stood on some key Republican issues. Ford later commented that not running with Rockefeller was one of the biggest mistakes he ever made. (Obviously peer pressure is not something with which only young people have to deal.) 1976 was the last time to date, and the ninth time overall, when the incumbent President ran for re-election without the incumbent Vice President as his running mate, not counting the eight times when there was no incumbent vice president (1812, 1888, 1900, 1904, 1912, 1924, 1948 & 1964) or the two times when the incumbent Vice President was of the opposing party (1800 & 1828). The nine times were 1804, 1832, 1840, 1864, 1872, 1892, 1940, 1944 & 1976 (I included 1832 because by the time John C. Calhoun resigned, Martin Van Buren had already been elected to succeed him).
