I will not argue with you because you have seen more elections than me in this country. To me close elections does not mean that it will have to turn into a north vs south affair. Why not have a close election while Dems win Texas and republicans carry Vermont? To me there is a deep divide in the country and the root of it is in the value systems of north and south.
