I had been waiting for someone to produce the purple and population distorted maps.

Now this made me feel a bit betteer.

6. Have u seen the 3D map.....

I find it very interesting.

The "Purple" maps suggest that liberals and conservatives are evenly spread out amongst any State's given population.

The 3D map gives a much more accurate picture of where the more sophisticated and educated voters are versus where the "hillbilly" voters come from.

7. Thank you for posting this DemCam

It is interesting to me too. You can see the "Mississippi River demographic" I call it, a blue streak right thru the center of our country. There is hope yet!
