Colorado the next California?

So Colorado will probably look more like the upper midwest than west coast...and perhaps Texas will eventually look more like Florida.

I look at it this way: The Front Range reminds me of politically of southern California, or at least southern california 25-30 years ago.

Denver and Boulder is sort of like LA. It is the big city and the main event. Both cities are culturally liberal and have a lot of things to do. Denver is similar to LA too in that it has a large hispanic population.

Arapahoe county sort of reminds me of the area between LA and Orange County like Lakewood or Long Beach. Very swing territory.

Douglas County reminds me a lot of Orange County. Basically masterplanistan.

Colorado Springs is like San Diego in the sense that it has a huge military presence and a right wing reputation.

The Rocky Mountains is sort of like the pacific ocean and the plains to the east is kind of like the desert.

Greeley of course is Bakersfield. A country @$$ town in the hinterlands with a lot of mexicans and rednecks.

Wow. Makes a lot of sense.

I really wanna see a 50.50 universal shift county map.

That would be like Obama staying in the mid 40s though. Unless there is a MASSIVE and SUSTAINED meltdown- we lose a war or large skirmish or go into a double-dip, it appears his floor is 49-50%.

Under that logic, we should prepare for California to vote for Huckabee and Texas to vote for Obama. Could happen, but its not in the realm of likely events.

a twelve point/55-43 victory for Obama would probably be what he has now plus Arizona, Missouri, Georgia and maybe something from the northern plains. That's probably everyone who would vote for him, right?
