Don’t assume the past hold for the future.

Before the current party system kicked in 1992, California, New York, and Illinois were all swing states, decided by 2-4pt in marginally competitive 1988. New Jersey was considered lean R.

While most observers knew Bush was losing 1992 election, when the lopsided results came in from what we call safe Blue states, didn’t people get the WTF feeling?
