Some liberal ski towns, as well as a growing Latino population in some areas. Nader also took votes from Gore in the West more than anywhere else.

True. Gore was an exceptionally poor candidate for the West.

What's interesting is that a lot of the ski resort counties actually swung hard against Obama this year.  In some of the liberal mountain counties of CO, Obama 2012 fell below Kerry 2004.

Rich white people.

In addition, at least in Summit County, UT, a lot of them liked Romney for his role in the 2002 Olympics.
