NY is trending democratic, and in particular the left wing of the democrats. We're already over-regulated, over-taxed and have little prospect of this changing anytime soon. The only good part of it is legalization of gay marriage.

Colorado is still trending Democratic even after what we've seen so far in Obama's term?

Look at the 2010 elections and you can see for yourself. Senator Bennet BARELY won, but polls suggested he would of lost to Buck. CD-7 is 'competitive' but Ed Permutter won without a sweat.
How unfortunate. The only silver lining, is that I think the economic trouble that is slowly starting to creep up on us will have a decent chance of changing that.

One question though. Presuming Obama gets reelected narrowly and has a second term much like how his first has gone so far, which way do you think CO would trend?

The trends of people moving from other liberal states and open borders with Mexico   probably won't change anytime soon, so I fear we'll just have to get used to it. It's unfortunate but such is life. It could be worse, though. Instead of being in Colorado you could be in a deep blue area like I am.

Mississippi is trending GOP at the state level, which kind of upsets me for some reason.  Pretty son there'll be no more Dixiecrats, no more "good ol' boy" network, no more Billy McCoy!   Mississippi politics are about to enter a new era of Republican dominance at the state level, and nostalgia for the golden days is setting in!
How is this a bad thing? The "good ol' boy network" produced decades of corruption and poverty.

Outside of deep blue areas, Pataki would be clearly to the left of most democrats, much less non-NY republicans.
