Clinton was a legitimate Southerner; John Kerry obviously was not. So I don't see how you can compare a race between a Southern Democrat and a non-Southern Republican (either 1992 or 1996) with a race between a liberal New Englander and the Governor of Texas.
Texas will be an interesting state in the future now that it is majority-minority, unless the GOP finds another way to appeal to Hispanics (GWB was actually pretty good at this). Not that it will become a swing state, but it will look more like '96 than '04.
