In many presidential election cycles, we've seen a few states shift to the party which loses substantial ground in the nation as a whole.
Although most states will swing GOP if the party picks up a large amount of the popular vote (in a close race), could any states could possibly swing towards Obama?
If so, which states?If I were to guess, maybe Arkansas or Tennessee (or some other Southern State) just because they've already shifted so Republican, it may be hard for them to shift more so.
Maybe something in the Northeast (like New Jersey or New York) because terrorism isn't as large of an issue, plus suburban voters may be more alienated from the GOP due to the party's strong shift to the right. Although I think this outcome would be more unlikely than a Southern State shifting towards Obama.
These are just some ideas, of course.
Thoughts/opinions are appreciated.
