I'm a lot more skeptical about the idea of states like MS eventually being more Democratic after 2016.  I think we're headed for more of an East-West split, instead.

South will go back to Democratic in next 25-30 Years because majority of Young Southerners are more Liberal and likely Democrat, while will agree with Dems on Social and Environmental Issues.

While North, especially Midwest are leaning more Republican because of People wanted get more Jobs and Employed.

This makes sense. We could see more of a coast-inland split rather than an East-West or North-South split. 2016 demonstrated progression towards a coast-inland split.

Trump did about as well in the North as Bill did in the South. i.e. was able to "split" the enemy bloc but still only won about 30% of it when losing candidates get shutout.

Yes. After World War II (effectively, after the New Deal party system began), very few regions have stayed loyal to the same party and each subsequent White House that changed parties have changed the composition of the states that backed the winning (and losing) candidates.

Well, the South is a region, and it doesn't change its boundaries EVER, no matter how mad both people in Miami or in rural Alabama might get at that statement.  The South is the South.  It's a big, diverse region, but it's static.  Period.

So eight Lean R states and one Lean D state? Makes sense.
