Actually there's a decent chance that Obama might be underestimated in the polls in his weaker states, so be careful about taking comfort from that kind of thing.

Hating on places because they vote the wrong way isn't especially pleasant.

You made the assertion that, on balance, South Dakota and New Jersey are more 'hellholish' (or inhospitable, or whatever) than Tennessee. A rational observer would say that Alberta trumps all three.

It's certainly less of a hellhole than New Jersey.
