Neither is a problem, but to answer the poll question, I would say option 2 (margin of victory being the key indicator for me).

Democrats have the bigger problem now, Republicans will have the bigger problem in a few years. The biggest SE state is a swing state (FL), and the 2 other big states (VA, NC) are trending overall in the Dems direction. Barring a landslide, the GOP doesn't even have a chance in Pennsylvania anymore (Bush visited 40+ times and lost by 2 pts. in a 2 1/2 pt. national victory), NH is only 4 EVs, and the rest of the region is so solidly Democratic that the GOP has no problem bashing it for the sake of rallying small town America.

LOL. You are almost as funny as Scoonie.

Neither party has a problem just because they can't win every state. Why do people on this board not seem to understand that?
