Another one is when the networks changed the color of the Dems from red (always identified with communism) to the GOP when went from blue to red. And of course, the GOP just sat back and allowed it to happen.
The incumbent party was red.
In 2000, Bush v. Gore, the GOP, as challengers, were blue. People started talking then about "red vs. blue America" and the colors stuck.
