Although Obama won Indiana and came very close to winning Missouri in 2008, Both of these states look like fools gold states for Dems nowadays, but if one of these states did somehow flip? Which one of the two do you think would flip?

Still Indiana imo, Hamilton County and Indianapolis suburbs leave some room for D growth and that kind of dynamic just isn't there in Missouri.

Agree with IN for the same reasons as already stated.

Indiana has growing suburbs and Missouri doesn't. Indiana suburbs have been later to grow and have been able to keep some of their rural characteristics longer, but they are growing as few suburbs are growing in the Midwest. See also Columbus. Missouri suburbs of St. Louis and Kansas City are old and are taking on urban characteristics (blight, decaying infrastructure, and rising costs of public services) -- but they are not growing. Indiana has been more R because it is less urban and suburban.

Indiana but this is like talking about whether Republicans have a better chance of winning Connecticut or New Jersey.

Indiana goes for the Democrat if everything goes wrong for the Republican, including an economic downturn or either an international disaster or the threat of one (Goldwater being connected to loose talk about nukes as a solution to the Red Menace when "Red" meant "Soviet" or Mao).

Obama won Indiana when the RV business got a triple-whammy of

(1) an economic meltdown
(2) a credit crunch, and
(3) some incredibly-high gasoline prices.

People could less afford to buy or use them.
