I say West Virginia. It's just that there are so many more registered Democrats there than in Colorado. Colorado has a strong conservative base, like Virginia, though it is decreasing, is still a force to be reckoned with to the ones who think Colorado is a shoe-in to vote Dem.

West Virginia on the other hand, as probably mentioned previously, does not have a strong conservative base, for Bush had to appeal to Democratic voters, who only voted for him in spite of Gore and Kerry. I think the Dems have learned their lessons about W VA...appeal to the coal mining industry and W VA will vote Dem. I think it's honestly as simple as that. It was truly a shock that Gore lost it in 2000, and Bush's margin of victory in 2004.
