Thanks, Andy.
At least someone in this forum "sees what's coming" for the Republicans in the years ahead.
Let's break down your post a little bit.
"they must now win at least two out of three of these states: PA, GA, and NC"
GA? How have the Pubbies been doing in national contests there lately? The continuing "change" of the state's demographics is going to seal that fate. Slowly but surely, it's "getting darker".
NC? That's possible.
PA? Are you kidding? What has been done to thwart The Party's "election apparatus" in that state?
"They could do it by losing PA and winning NV, AZ and NH"
NH? Nope. Maybe 1 in 5 chance there, at best.
AZ? Sorry, that's a blue state now, at least insofar as national elections are concerned. They don't even bother to hide the cheating there any more.
NV? Toss up at best, tipped-over-blue at worst.
"or maybe by winning WI and MI"
The Republicans have about as much chance of winning these two states again (in a presidential contest) as they do in PA. The Party's apparatus will see to that.
I hope you read this followup, Andy.
Please show me where I'm wrong.
There was a time up to about 15-20 years ago when the Electoral College favored Republicans (at least marginally).
That time... has ended.
When was the last time you heard the dem-communists griping about the EC?
Why is that?
