Would Arkansas vote for Democrats in 2008?

[Person Man]

I fully expect Hillary to win Arkansas in 2008.  Arkansas is a much more Democratic state than people think, it's the bluest state in the South.

Can't be bluer than Florida or Virginia. Clinton will Sweep VA,MO,OH,CO,NM,NV,IA before Arkansas. Even if she is more popular in AR than those other places where she gets beat bad or ties right now. The GOP will spend so much time on the defensive, that those first tier states will go unmanned.

One thing people always forget is that state parties DO make a difference in national elections. They provide the organization..... so in a close race I suspect that Clinton would do better in Arkansas than in Missouri....

Yeah, Missouri is much is a red state, even if the GOP has to fight for every vote above 48%.
In Arkansas, the GOP will have to fight for every vote above 45% in 2008.

Hmmm...I still don't know how we are going to win the conservative south and lose the independent west. Seems like overreach to me.

What is conservative, then? Indiana and Utah then, lol.
Then again, Nashville is solidly conservative.  There's a bunch of fundy hicks make 80 a year there.


and what do you mean by "populist"?
