By observing the counties, it was possible to see that outside the black belt, the counties with Hispanic population, big cities, college towns and DC metro area, Obama was the second worst democrat in the South, better than McGovern only. In rural baptist white counties, Obama did worse than Mondale, Dukakis, Gore and Kerry. In absolute percentages. I am not talking only about distance to the national vote.
