3. Indiana and Ohio are odd-men out, aren't they?

But, keep in mind, there are many, many, many blue voters, as many as 45 percent, in those red states.
It really isn't a North vs. South issue - it's a city versus rural issue. There are more large cities in the blue states.
The red states are more rural and have to rely on the right-wing dominated news media, thus their opinions are skewed for them.
We need media reform.
