The suburban moderates who voted Republican for President in the 80s fell in love with Bill Clinton and the Democratic Party in 1992 and never came back.  California back in the 60s and 70s was a pretty conservative state as I understand, but Clinton changed all that.

Same thing happened in Massachusetts, which was only about D+1 in 1988.

Massachusetts's PVI going into the 1988 election was D+6.75.  Coming out was D+7.75.
