The Bush Country map clearly shows the Democrat strategy that was revealed in 2000. They figured out the Electoral College balance that should have tipped in their favor. The Democrats gave up the South in favor of the Northeast, the West Coast, and the Mississippi River (Great Lakes, St. Louis, and Louisiana). If you look at it more closely, the Northeast and the West Coast are very liberal, while the Mississippi region is all Labor. Their flaw was that the "character issues" cost them Arkansas and Tennessee, either of which would have given them the White House.
Their plan is to run with the same Electoral College strategy, except that they will correct (meaning more fraud) the Tennessee and Arkansas problem from 2000 -- Arkansas went Democrat for Senate in 2002. They may make another run at Florida (I think it would be ill-advised), but 2002 showed them that Florida was a fluke (and it was personal for McAuliffe, a mistake he won't repeat); Florida would not have been a player if either Clinton's or Gore's home states had voted Democrat.

The Democrats are exporting themselves from the Liberal Blue coastal enclaves, e/g., Los Angeles area, to places like Arizona and New Mexico.
