North Carolina I think will become a safe democratic state by the end of the decade, considering Obama got 74 percent of the under 30 vote in North Carolina.

Young voters get older, and when they do they start voting more Republican. I still think NC has the potential of being a swing state in '12 though. Indiana however probably goes back to safe GOP column... unless Palin is the nominee.



That is true to some extent. But 74 percent? That is way too big of a lead to cut into.

You see, in NC at 2008 it was "cool" to like Obama. And the colleges did a great job at getting young kids to go out and vote for him. Now when this kids get out in the real world where mommy and daddy aren't paying for everything then they will start voting Republican.
