I think all six states were turnout issues to some degree. Alaska with its Native American vote is probably the most prominent case of this; I somehow doubt that Sarah Palin's effect was enough to cause AK to trend 12 points D. Mississippi and Louisiana were due to increased black turnout, and they'll swing back right in 2016. (Hillary is another story.)

Mississippi 18-29 whites voted 18% Obama in '08, which was better than 11% among all whites, but not exactly something to call home about.

Lol. Tongue That's a bit sad. Generation after generation after generation seems to be trapped in the same mindset. Still. After all these decades. 160 years after slavery officially ended in the south. Sad

What mindset are you talking about? There's nothing wrong with having a conservative approach to things. The idea they're still into segregation is a stereotype.
                                                                                                                                                   Indeed.  Ms voters support limited govt, lower taxes, and judeo
 Christian values.
 They are not racist, just intelligent


These do not belong in the same post.

So only Democrats can decide what is and isn't intelligent and we're stupid if we don't agree with you?

No. Voting based on religious values which will eventually be imposed on other people is not intelligent.

It's not intelligent that religious beliefs get imposed on other people? Many democrats voted against Romney because they thought he was a right-wing white rich trash out of touch man who didn't care about other people, and they spread the word to other people. Similarly, many republicans voted against Obama because they thought he was a Muslim socialist who was going to wreck capitalism, and they also spread the word to others. It's just what people believe really, and no one can control what beliefs get imposed on others. It's really an opinion whether it's intelligent or not.
Agreed. While Mississippi is actually ranked one of the lowest in terms of intelligence, most Republicans would agree with the limited government beliefs they have. The socon beliefs that many MS Republicans have on the other hand I, and most on that forum disagree with. Nobody here is imposing anything on anyone.
