You are mistaken. I live in rural PA. This is the industrial Northeast, not the West. The Democrats you are talking about are not rural.

The claim was "drop Philadelphia in Texas and watch the State turn blue". I responded that rural dems would overcome any favor that crap hole of a city would attempt to yield. Your dems have seemed to stay dems since the "Reagan Revolution" produced (elder Bush got Reagan's bounce) Republican victories. Ever since then your State has not overcome the rural dems who had a short epiphany in the 1980s. You are not understanding this reality, ie. you need more rural DEMS pulling for the Repub candidate. Rural Repubs may be a formidable political force State wide but in National elections you are not picking away the indies mand dems that Texas does.
