Don’t forget Old Virgnina. That has trended blue recently. They just elected a Democrat Senator and a Democrat Gov.

Don’t forget Old Virgnina. That has trended blue recently. They just elected a Democrat Senator and a Democrat Gov.

Both of those were situations where the Republicans lost ... and the Democrats "won" because they just happen to be the other major party on the ballot. Kilgore shot himself in the foot by violating Godwin's law, Allen shot himself in the foot with "Macaca" and a ham sandwich. Kaine and Webb were smart enough to run just far enough to the right to hold their base and pick up right-leaning indies and center-leaning Republicans.
