Republican and Democratic counties were entirely different kinds of places. The average population of an Obama landslide county was 278,601. The average McCain landslide county had 37,475 people.
It looks like the coming 2012 GOP "resurgence" is dependent on rural counties with declining, aging and poorly educated populations.
Something tells me this is not a winning strategy, though I suppose this type of magical thinking should not surprise us. After all we're dealing with "folks" who think the earth is 6000 years old and cavemen galloped across the plains mounted on their trusty stegosaurus.
