Are you stupid?  TX and NC are not trending to the left.

You are apparently too stupid to read - the map on which Texas and North Carolina trend 'left' is clearly labeled 'the future'.  I hardly think anyone can dispute that these two states will trend Democrat in future, though whether it will be enough to every tip them to a Democrat Presidential candidate is debatable.

I agree with you mostly, but I think Ohio already proved it's just as mindless as the rest of the country.  Withe their economy the way it is and they voted more on the gay marriage issue?  They've lost it.  Ohio will be solid GOP in 2012 methinks. 

No doubt you are correct about the mindlessness and self-destructiveness of a majority of Ohioans, but there can be little doubt that their state is, on the whole trending very slightly more 'leftward' with every election cycle.
