State of the GOP

Salon takes a state by state look at the Republican Party. Florida is marked as a purple state turning blue because of Barack Obama's victory. Salon reports the DNC will attempt to pick off some of Texas' congressional seats. Texas will likely pick up seats in the next Census.

The GOP faces an increase of Southern Hispanics that aren't anti-Castro and pro-immigration. The Southern strategy and race-baiting of the Nixon era won't work.
