Back in the 80's and 90's, there were a lot fewer state polls than there are today, so it was harder to determine in advance which states were safe, likely, or lean. The 2000 election is when statewide polls really started to proliferate.
This might have something to do with the fact that none of the elections in the 80's or 90's were close enough for the Electoral College math to be worth worrying about.
