Does that map imply South Bend, Indiana went for Obama? If that reflects ND students, that would really be bad.

Well, the problem with this is that it shows land mass instead of population. You can comfort yourself with this graph or you can do something to change the numbers that landed us in 0bamaland.

Well done Oklahoma, maybe the only solidly red state. Not even Native American reservations from what I can see, probably pulled some blue out in places like Utah.

I still believe my state FL is red

reason why is because of all the ballot questions we had they all went to the right, whether it was homo marriage, to raising tax’s etc

I believe that our state shows blue because of the massive voter fraud here.
In GA they had over 100,000 voters who voted inFL and OH, they tracked one black woman down in Daytona who says she did not remember voting in GA but used an address to vote in FL while she is a GA resident.

Now the snowbirds from the north east do the same, they use their vacation winter address to register here in FL then they vote in their north east state then vote down here in FL when they arrive to escape the cold form up there.

There is no way all those ballot questions went right and yet obama gets voted in.

Between me, my wife and friends we do not know of more than a handful of obama voters. Even the Dems here voted for Sarah, .The signs and stickers out numbered obama by 10 to 1 and that was in Jacksonville when we went there

Thanks—it’s now my desktop background.

I need to get out of this vile blue state.

In spite of all the hype and spin, look at this map which shows all the counties that went red!

Unfortunately, cows, cornstalks and cactus don't vote.

This bothers me.

The Left has always chosen the color red going back to Soviet days.

As we speak conservatism has allowed itself to be branded with the same color. The polarization is similar the the 1917 Russian revolution: the empire collapsed. The two major factions were the Bosheviks and the Mesheviks. In Russian bolshoi means big and menshei mean smaller.

We have allowed the left to define the isue again.

I've seen the map and all it really says is that there are many more people within 50 miles of the coasts than there are in between.

Red covers a lot more land but is inhabited by many fewer people, and as difficult as it may be for us conservatives to believe I think it will only get worse.

We may still be a center right nation but the pendulum is definitely swinging TO THE LEFT!!

The blue looks like a cancer spreading across the country.

Here’s the problem: First, that map is bluer than it was in 2004. Second, we will never win with only rural and small town support: that map only shows that geography doesn’t equal population. There are other maps which depict a truer picture. Third, we won’t regain the ground we’ve lost by ranting about socialism (Bush’s top marginal rate is 35%; Obama’s is 39.6%. Raising the rate is a bad idea, but what’s the tipping point into socialism: 36%? 37%? It’s a meaningless distinction), but by remembering to be conservative. Republicans deserved to lose this election. I’m tired of having to choose between slow gov’t growth and rapid gov’t growth.

The problem is that most urban centers go Dim. What the Repubs need to do is to send conservative missionaries into the cities,

A majority red nation, perhaps, but one without representation of any sort for at least the next two years. Much damage can and will be done in that time and there’s nothing we can do about it.

The funny part is you can see down South where all the gerrymandered districts are.

Acreage doesn’t vote, people do. And the majority of the people live in those pesky blue counties.
