Lousiana has just shown that it is possible for the Dems to win in the Deep South, but I'm not sure whether "Bubba Hunting" is likely to be copied elsewhere.

So the Dems have a great shot of winning the south when a non-white Rep runs nationally?

Gephardt, Clark and Edwards would probably do very well in the Upper South(at least in comparison to 2000), Dean would do badly but not dreadfully but as for Kerry...

Dean will do worse then Kerry in the south.

You have to factor in the undecided who will spilt about 75% against an incumbent.

Also note that Florida is not typical of the rest of the South at all, in theory it should be one of the most GOP states in the South.

Your assuming the undecided will split that way.
