9. Kansas, I'm sorry to say
is probably secure Bushland. Although we do have a Democratic governor, and a woman at that, Kathleen Sebelius.

It's why, especially with the foolish Electoral College system, I'm still not sure there's any point in my voting for any Democratic candidate. My vote doesn't count.

And I think the idea that the Electoral College system forces candidates to campaign in more states than they otherwise would is quite wrong. If each and every vote really did matter, if all that counted was the final total, I'd stand a much better chance of seeing a candidate in person.
