“It’s my opinion that southerners are not in great favor at the moment anywhere but in the south.”
It could definitely be said that Yankees with liberal political pasts are not in great favor in the South. And it’s the South and West, and part of the Midwest that have elected Republican presidents, not those areas where the South might be out of favor.
A scenario where blue states which rarely vote for a Republican presidential candidate, are the states that select the nominee in 2088 might be a recipe for disaster. Could Giuliani or Romney even deliver their home state?
An interesting question: Arkansas went for Bush both times. Do you think Billary will be able to flip Arkansas to vote for Hillary? Could be critical in a close election.

Well I addressed that earlier, about the border states turning purple. In my opinion it’s because of the influx of people moving south from New England when they retire. Same goes for the Mountain states where the immigrants from the west coast all seem to be moving AZ. CO. ID

I’m not sure if he can flip it, but I wouldn’t count it out, and I think AZ is in play in 08 and NM goes blue. I wrote a really long and detailed post about the things I’ve been seeing, and what I think they mean, but it’s on another thread. I’ll freep mail it to you, and we can discuss it.
