25. That's such a closed-minded attitude
By that rationale, we should just shut down the Democratic Party in Texas and Oklahoma.

Three points:
1. We aren't electing the president of the Blue States. I would hope that when a Democrat gets in, he is considering the needs of Wyoming as well as the needs of New York.

2. This Red State/Blue State nonsense is not written in stone. Within a decade, if people keep moving from Massaschusetts, New Hampshire may be as comfortably blue as any state. And California used to be a pretty strong conservative state. Things change.

3. The states should have some say in choosing their own election days.
