Republican: Idaho -- barring a large Hispanic influx. It was LBJ's weakest win in 1964 while the states that went for Goldwater went so as either Goldwater's home state (Arizona) or statewide protest votes against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Should Nebraska keep its system of voting by electoral districts, NE-03 (central and western Nebraska) stays R.

Miscegenation will ultimately do the current Republican Party in in the Deep South.

Democratic:  I like to make allusions to FDR. His 48-state landslide in 1936 was really bigger than the 49-state landslides of Nixon and Reagan... and I can imagine a Republican incumbent to say

"As goes Rhode Island... so goes Vermont".
