17. South is a lost cause, look at the electoral map in 2004, not 1992
Kerry didn't come within 10% of Bush in one southern state! However, he barely lost Ohio and came within 2-10% in Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada and Colorado. WHy in God's name would we focus on an area that is only getting more conservative when we could be focussing on areas where the demographics are changing in our favor?
The southern strategy makes no sense to me.
