Me personally, I think the states with the most liberal zombies would include California, Connecticut and possibly New York/New Jersey.  You might throw Minnesota in there as well.  Washington State and Oregon might be included since they include Seattle and Portland respectively.  The thing about those states is that the final votes are often decided by the major metropolitan areas rather than the state(s) as a whole, much like Colorado or New Mexico.

From my experience, Washington State, Oregon, Colorado and New Mexico are basically "red states" once you get out of the metropolitan areas.

Biden used to be able to connect with people. The life long democrats that are democrats because their parents were, have finally realized they don't agree with the party anymore. They have always been swayed by Biden and similar. They talk like they are one of them and then get elected and do nothing. Some of that exists in both parties. Biden was a master of that, but now I don't think his mind is there enough to do it. He can still be painted as that, but it will only last as long as they don't have him talk.

As far as the bold, that describes me... until I finally started paying attention.  That happened in the mid-to-late 80's for me.  Sadly my parents and some of my siblings still vote a straight democrat ticket (or always have) for the most part.  My sister, her husband and I are the only ones that have stepped away from doing so.  Sadly my parents and other two siblings won't change (that much).  However, after talking with my parents this last weekend they informed me that they probably are not going to vote in the upcoming election.  They hate Trump, but can't get behind Sanders or Biden.  I kind of think that this is the case with many.

The bottom line is the DNC has chosen a candidate worse than Hillary and doesn't stand a chance.  When the DNC takes the nomination away from Bernie you will see the spoiled children throw a major tantrum.  And yes... I do have younger nieces and nephews that love Bernie.  The young "woke" crowd will throw a hissy fit when the socialist/communist is not chosen by the DNC.
