There will be plenty of Kerry counties in Appalachia and the fringe south that will go McCain.  The trend of PA, TN, KY, MO, and AR to the Republicans relative to the nation is indicative of this.

In 2004, if Kerry were up 7% on Bush, he'd be comfortably ahead in Missouri, and possibly ahead in Tennessee as well.  Kentucky and Arkansas would both be races, too.  Instead, Missou is a dead heat and the rest of the fringe south is out of reach.

What's with this word "fringe"?

"Fringe" as in "outer."  As opposed to the "Deep South" and the "Coastal South."

I define the fringe south as WV, KY, TN, AR, and MO.  Call it "highland south" if you wish.  I don't mean "fringe" in any sort of negative sense.

Gotcha.
