Which Gulf Coast state is least likely to vote Democratic in 2012?

[7,052,770]

Alabama is the obvious answer but I'm surprised that Mississippi is running in second right now considering Obama actually did significantly better there than he did in Louisiana.

People have certain things they want to believe about Mississippi, regardless of how true they are.  One of those is that we're a bunch of dumb, backwards, racist rednecks.

And your state has given us no reason to believe anything else....  Anyway obvious answer is Alabama.

Do you like popular music?  Thank Mississippi.

Anyhow, if Barbour is the nominee, then the answer to this question shifts to Mississippi.  As I told Phil on another subforum, Mississippi will vote for one of its own GOP even if Obama breaks 70% of the national popular vote.
