14. So why has there not been a slew of posts

Oct 2012

concerning how red Nebraska or the Dakotas or Missouri or Utah or Montana are?

Yes, we get the occasional "What's the Matter with Kansas?" thread, but that's only because there was a book by the same title.

I guess my point is that there are good, strong Democrats in the Southern states - more so than in Utah or Oklahoma, the two reddest states on the map - and our challenges are much more difficult than those living in blue states. We've got far more of a battle on our hands than a Democrat in New York or California has.
