Anti-Paul states

[Adele is pudgy!]

If Ron Paul competes against Obama, which states / regions will swing towards the Democratic pole? (Regardless of whether these states voted Democrat last time or will vote Republican next year, respectively.)

Northeast - Lean D overall

That's absolutely wrong. Look at the polls:
New Hampshire and Maine's 1st congressional district are gonna go to Ron Paul; he also has realistic chances of winning Connecticut. Even Massachusetts with all its high-level students will heavily swing red, while staying blue, of course.

South - Lean to Solid R

And that's exactly what I heavily doubt. the Southerners won't rejoice in voting for a libertarian. They either stay at home, which will result in turning their home states blue, or they predestine a contemporary version of George Wallace as their personal third-party candidate.

Mideast - Lean R overall

Hell yeah! Ahmadinedschad is gonna give his vote to Paul...
