Pink: Weak Democrat
Red: Strong Democrat
Turqoise: Weak GOP
Blue: Strong GOP
This may just be the map of the future. I think the GOP should court the Hispanics in the Southwest, and try to appease the Midwesterners. Iowa will be a swing state for a while (though not this year) and vote for their favorite candidate. North Carolina and Virginia will turn DEM, but not so diffrent then Minnesota this year. New Hampshire and Maine will lean DEM but won't be out of reach. Anyway an alright scenario for the GOP.
