This is Big: Dems Can Win Without Ohio or Florida

Romney at first didn't want to concede because he thought there was still hope in Ohio. When Colorado went for Obama he had to concede because it didn't matter if Obama won Ohio or Florida. Carl Rove's desperate recalculations of Ohio didn't matter. No counting chads, no legal battles we won without those two contentious states! If we still needed Florida election would still not be settled this morning.

We have a new map. Dems are going to be hard to beat in presidential elections now that we're not dependent on Ohio and Florida. We have a new map and new path to victory...Nevada, Colorado, Iowa, Virginia.

I really believe future presidential elections strongly favor the Dems. Yes it is amazing that we don't need either of those two states to win! Until the right wing stops nominating idiotic, batshit insane candidates, they will continue to lose with the changing demographics.
