Texas has always been a pipe dream, and did anybody really think Wendy Davis could win? People were saying she could of course, but that was just to boost morale. It was pretty obvious from the get go that she'd need to run against a Republican with an Akin moment along with 2014 becoming a Democratic wave year to have a chance.
It's an interesting question whether Arizona or Georgia would be easiest to flip. I'd say Arizona, simply because even a modest drop in black turnout would make it near impossible to carry Georgia. There's more wiggle room in Arizona, and I still think Obama would've won the state in 2008 (or come very close to winning it) if it wasn't for McCain being the nominee.
