Since Wilson and Bush were so opposite, the only explanation for the "mirror image effect" is the wholesale population exchanges from the Mountain West and Dixie to New England and the Pacific Coast.

That would also explain why Obama this year will win nearly none of the states won by the Democratic nominee in 1896.



They weren't wholesale population exchanges, they were exchanges in (perceived) ideology.
