and in 2008, in the middle of what we think of as big, empty, red state nebraska, it was barack obama who won nebraska's second congressional district. so he won that single electoral vote. so basically, omaha, nebraska, was a blue dot. since obama beat john mccain so badly in 2008, that little blue dot in nebraska ended up just being sort of interesting trivia about the election. that one electoral vote was not decisive, right? but check this out. the other state besides nebraska that does not just award its electoral votes as a whole state, the other state that splits them up by district is the state of maine. and maine has gone all blue in the last five presidential elections. but this year, a pro-mitt romney super pac is buying a nice chunk of airtime in maine for pro-mitt romney ads, including, in the one congressional district in the state, where mitt romney might, maybe, conceivably have a chance. and yeah, maybe the romney super pac is really buying ads in maine so they'll get seen next door in swing state, new hampshire, but maybe the race is
