what hillary clinton did but just do a little better in particularly the white midwest and also turning greater african-american in those areas that we could win. but maybe the map might be shifting. so maybe donald trump might start looking at states in new england like new hampshire and maine as places he would wish to make inroads. so i think that the democrats have to not make the mistake they made in 2016 and assume that the electoral college map of the previous election is static. that these things can shift and change and you states can become available to donald trump and also to the democrats. so perhaps in the southwest like states like arizona might be coming into play. people even talk about texas. that may be premature, but the democrats really need to think about the dynamic nature of the electoral college map. >> well, it certainly will not be a sleepy presidential election. and it's off and running, will it, richard? i think we'll have a chance to talk with you again. we always appreciate your insights. thank you. >> thank you. >> have a good one. >>> another story we're following. countdown to
