Anyone interested in an 08-12 Romney or Paul swing/trend map?

If you could, trend maps for Romney and Paul would also be excellent.

If I am reading this correctly, red and pink represent negative trends, while green and cyan represent positive trends?

Excellent!

a Huckabee v Santorum map might be interesting.

Negative and positive swings, correct.

a Huckabee v Santorum map might be interesting.

What do you mean? Swing from H. to S., or just a strength comparison?

Romney is weaker where he is strong and stronger where he is weak.

Interesting though I don't know what to entail from that, except the fact that he is desperately flat globally speaking and desperately homogeneous.

When you see that the GOP right is now supporting Joke Santorum,
T-Paw, Christie, Paul Ryan, Jindal or any other slightly better can really have big regrets...
Even being beaten by Obama could have been a great step towards the GOP nomination in 2016.

Here's the Paul swing and trend for Xahar. The Romney trend is so similar to the swing that it's not worth making the map.

is there a difference?

Not really, but it's a question of how you want the data you are looking for to be displayed.

Not really, but it's a question of how you want the data you are looking for to be displayed.
I was thinking in terms of a single map. It would look like a swing map, but it would be a strength map really - since it's not the same candidate. Does that clarify it?

If I overlay the Huckabee and Santorum strength maps, the Huckabee strength will be greater almost everywhere partially because Santorum ran against more candidates (Huckabee was 10% stronger statewide than Santorum - it's not an altogether even comparison.) Are you looking for a comparison of the strength of each candidate against the statewide average?

Sorry if I'm being a little dense, but I just can't figure out in my own mind how to present the information you're looking for in a meaningful way

When can we get an Iowa by Congressional District Map?

There's one on the Atlas home page in the results section.

against statewide average makes sense then.
