I’m getting inundated with recollections — 50% of which must be faulty — from people saying they remember the GOP being blue, or red, in this year or that. I’m sure some of you are right, but some of you clearly aren’t and you’re all just as positive as pie about what you remember. This is what I wanted to avoid. Some mapmakers and analysts have always shown the GOP in blue. But that doesn’t mean the media has always done it. I’m working on something else right now, so I’ll get to the bottom of this later. But I’m still pretty sure I am right. Regardless, please, please no more emails saying, I remember this color or that. I respect everyone, and I aprreciate the help, but it doesn’t settle the issue and it clogs up my email box.
