I think he can flip Denton County, TX or Galveston County, TX blue, although they could be a stretch.

Galveston County has been in a slow decline for the past century and is probably going to get more Republican as time goes on and its population gets smaller.

But I have seen old maps of it being blue, whatever happened to that? Plus you have to realize Galveston is a blue city, and Texas City, La Marque, having lots of minorties.

Gwinnett and Cobb, the suburban giants of ATL.

Here's why:

Gwinnett demographics
     -44% non hispanic white
     -24% African American
     -20% Hispanic
     -10% Asian

yes this is in mutha f****n Georgia

Cobb Demographics
     -56% non hispanic white
     -25% African American
     -12% hispanic
     -4.5% Asian

Cobb is whiter but about 30-35% of the white vote went for Obama in '08, which is big for GA

Diversity at it's finest.
