55. When you say "liked in red", Obama has won blue voters in those red states
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 12:39 PM by Carrieyazel
in caucuses and some primaries. These are NOT red voters in red states.
General elections in these states are vastly different than Dem caucuses and primaries.

Even in the reddest of states there are always some true blue voters who reliably vote Democratic. That Obama is winning these voters is not earth shattering.

Obama has won these strongly leaning Dem voters in caucuses etc., but these voters are unlikely to go Repuke anyway in a general. Not that it matters in their states. We are not going to win these base red states in November, whether its Obama or Hillary.
