Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona are still very Republican states, it is similar in the way your map shows parts of Massachusetts trending Republican, it is just because those places are so Democratic to begin with.

Colorado and New Mexico are different stories.

Obama lost MT by 3% in 2008. Western Montana has quite a few liberal ski/college towns + unionized mining towns.

2008 was a fluke, Obama wasn't even competitive in Montana in 2012 unlike say Colorado. Missouri was closer in 2008 and 2012 and nobody is suggesting Missouri is trending Democratic. Montana is still a very Republican state.
