Georgia is Metro Atlanta and then everyone else. It's getting to be a liberal Metro Atlanta while the rest of the state is Conservative.

This is true, but liberal Metro Atlanta is growing really fast while the rest of the state isn't. Gwinnett County demonstrates this in a stark fashion:

2004 (244,343 votes): Bush 66%, Kerry 33%, Badnarik 1%
2016 (330,950 votes): Clinton 50%, Trump 44%, Johnson 4%, Unregistered write-ins* 1%, McMullin 1%

*In places where they have been counted, most write-in votes for unregistered write-in candidates were for Bernie Sanders.

If this continues, Georgia will become competitive quite soon indeed. Though it isn't quite there yet.
