The "red/blue state" thing is a myth to begin with.
The real map is the red/blue COUNTY-BY-COUNTY post election map. That's the one that shows that in every state, the Democrats controlled the parasite nests (cities) while the Republicans owned the great expanses populated by working, taxpaying traditional American families. Obviously, the states with the most and biggest parasite nests generally were "blue" states.

Not true, actually. The red states generally received more in Federal money than they sent in, while the blue states paid more than they got back. Like it or not, the cities in this country is where the wealth is created and where tax dollars come from.

The "rugged, individualistic" Western states are giant welfare queens, sucking at the Federal teat.

Actually, the really telling map was never widely published. That is maps of precinct-by-precinct results showing what an infinitesimally small area is "blue majority". Even blue majority counties were usually just a bunch of blue majority precinicts in the largest city surrounded by many more red precincts.
