Exactly, it was about the top of the ticket.

Eisenhower was popular everywhere, Kennedy was from MA, from that point on MA showed a consistent leftward bent.

Even when it did go to the GOP, it went by a very small margin, in GOP landslides (41.9% v 50.7% in 1980 and 51.2% v 58.7% in 1984)

The Republican Party was much more kinder to liberals in the 1950s.

You mean... when they didn't use the term as an insult?
