[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]most people who know anything about politics will admit that the swing states are the key to the elections[/quote]
The problem is that getting too swing-state oriented (in terms of resources and rhetoric) puts congressional races in non-swing states at risk, which is why no one with any discernible power or statute will ever say that only swing states matter.

IMO the bigger issue is that both parties waste time and resources on fake swing states (i.e., ones that seem attainable but really aren't absent a seismic shift in which case they weren't tipping point in the first place).  For example, in 2020 Democrats should focus less on TX, MO, AZ, and possibly even OH.  They should try to force the Republicans to play defense in NC, GA, and IA though.  On the other side, Republicans shouldn't bother with CO, NM, or VA and should instead force the Democrats to play defense in MN, MI, WI, and PA.  I think there are only a few completely up-for-grabs states -- FL, NV, and NH.[/quote]

Great analysis :-)[/quote]
