Idaho

Outlook: Solid Republican

Idaho is one of the most resolutely Red states in the nation, with not a single Democratic senator or congressman. It supported George W. Bush with a greater than 38 percent margin in 2004, making Idaho the third most loyal state to the GOP that year. The state has not favored a Democrat for president since 1964 and Barack Obama would be foolish to go mining for votes in the Gem State this fall.
