National Journal on the Interior West (and Virginia)by Ryan Sager
National Journal takes a look at the interior West (a topic near and dear to my heart) and Virginia and how they'll play in the 2008 election. Long story short, Independents and Goldwater Republicans have become disaffected by today's GOP out West. Meanwhile, demographic trends are turning Virginia blue. Arizona, Colorado, and Virginia are new swing states this time around, barring unforeseen developments. And then there's this on Arizona: "In Arizona, Republicans say that Clinton would have a difficult time winning their state. ... Yet polls indicate that Clinton would be quite competitive, except perhaps against Giuliani. A Cronkite-Eight poll in August by Arizona State University showed Clinton trailing the former New York City mayor, 49 percent to 37 percent. But she was in a statistical tie with Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, and even Arizona's own John McCain."Mr. Giuliani's electability argument may not be reason enough for Republicans to nominate him, but I've yet to see a serious argument that it's not accurate.
