AZ. NV, NM, and COLO. That's the best the Dems can hope for any time soon (plus the coast).


And lose Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and probably Minnesota in the process, plus they would basically be conceding Ohio and Iowa to the Republicans.

granted, but aren't these the states that are losing population and electoral votes? 

I added Michigan and PA too, as you can see.  I see it as a decent long term strategy, but we are talking very long term before those states out-wiegh the ones they would be losing, and the Dean would be gone in 8 years if they kept losing, anyway, thus taking them back to the tried and true.  the only thing they would acchomplish is losing credability with voters in the states I mentioned.  Let's face it, both parties are in a box right now.  Its just that the Democrats box is a bit smaller.

Well, I think that the Republicans have more manuvering room, though.
