OK, so in 2004, Kerry won every town in Rhode Island besides the twin Greenwiches and Scituate. In 2008, Obama won every town except for Scituate (and even that was a small margin. I have a few questions.

1. Do you think that a Democrat could win every town in the state (assume there's a Republican opponent)
2. What makes Scituate so Republican

1. Yes
2. Its whiteness and probably its wealth

Most of Rhode Island is extraordinarily white and wealthy.

Seeing that Obama came 262 votes short in Scituate of winning every town, yes, I think it'll happen. Maybe not in 2012, but it's a very definite possibility.

Scituate Median Household Income: $60,788 (ranked 5th in the state)
