California without 3rd world LA or SF would be a swing state. Folks feel as if their voice does not matter in real CA
Except the Republican dominated Deep South is much more like the third world than every other region.
This isn't exactly fair; while that guys comment were stupid, the problems in that region go back before the Republicans ever won a Southern state;on the other hand, many of the richest districts in the country go Republican.
The Deep South was still ruled by conservative right-wingers that had much more in common with today's Republican today than with today's Democratic party.
This thread is meaningless since just about every large city is more liberal than its state.
