Btw, Mr Fresh, which state do you consider more conservative, Idaho or Utah? I used to think Utah but now I'm not so sure.
I'm not closely acquainted with either state, but I would vote for Idaho. At least PART of Utah sometimes votes for Dems (Jim Matheson and Rocky Anderson in SLC).
Has a single Democrat won a statewide or congressional election in Idaho in the last ten years? (Maybe, but I can't remember one).
On the other hand, Gore lost Utah by 41%, but came withing 39% of pulling off a win in Idaho. :-P
