IIRC, Clinton seriously contested the state in 1992. Clinton, probably more so than most politicians, sought to win over those who were reluctant to support him, rather than building on his base and/or getting his base to turn out (a good strategy, given the Dem's electoral fortunes from 1968 through 1988). Perot was probably a factor as well.
For similar reasons, Clinton won Montana (a normally Republican state) and Nevada (which at the time was considered a pretty strong Republican state).
