If everyone voted based strictly on economic issues, would Republicans win anywhere other than the wealthy places? I don't think there are many Paris Hilton wannabes in Utah, Idaho, or South Carolina. I think Republicans would lose all 50 states. The electoral map by county would look bizarre - the Republicans would win only the richest counties, which are in major metropolitan areas and lose just about everywhere else, even counties more Republican than Utah.
Is Virginia really that socially liberal? I know northern Virginia is socially liberal, but I thought the rest of the state is as socially conservative as Mississippi, Alabama, or South Carolina.
Is Colorado that socially liberal? Some of the maps show Colorado as more socially liberal than Wisconsin, a state that no Republican presidential nominee has won since the Reagan landslide of 1984.
