Why does anyone think Hillary would win Arkansas? I think it's impossible, even against a weak Republican. AK is a deep red state; Mitt carried it by over 60% in 2012.
If Hillary is elected, she will follow Obama's electoral path to the White House, not Bill Clinton's.
A winning party would have to carry around 40 states to win on turf tilting (or even defaulting) to the opposition party.
You know this.
I know this.
But, there are numerous forum posters missing the Old Map of the winning Republicans and the winning Democrats.
Arkansas is one of the ten worst states, historically, for its record of backing presidential winners. Four of the Old Confederacy's eleven states occupy the ten worst-performing slots (which, by the way, includes both Texas and Georgia).
The Republicans, who now have their base in states like Arkansas, are welcome to enjoy their Current Map.
