That’s the 2000 electoral map. Of all the dumbass things a Republican crybaby could post regarding presidential elections, this makes the least sense.

And you’re absolutely right. Even supposedly serious pundits (George Will among others) have made the argument that the size of the territory won is an important factor in assessing presidential election results. As silly as that sounds, when cows and cornfields are given the franchise, he’ll be right.
