7. my theory is that it is guns...
voters in the west are very independent, i really think some states like NM,AZ,NV and CO would have gone the other way if it wasnt for the gun issue. Dems did really well on the state level in CO and even MT. A lot of these people see us as coastal elites who want to take their gun toting lifestyle away. I am hoping the national party sees this and backs off the gun issue. It would be fine to make this a state & local issue. The northeast and CA have strict gun laws on the books and most likely always will. Let rural people and ranchers with acres and acres of land play with all the guns they want. We can win the west if we lose this anti-gun stigma.
