50 Sta-- err, 20 State Strategy

Democrats vowed earlier this summer to compete in every state, but the reality is different in a tight race. Take Arkansas for example. Campaign materials (and ad buys) are going to be hard to come by here, unless the various central committees and campaign headquarters purchase signs and bumper stickers. Likewise, the Arkansas Project and the Tolbert Report are reporting that the RNC is moving staff from Arkansas to Pennsylvania.

The presidential race is actually shaping up as a battle of 20 states. Here's more from Stateline.org, including comments from Arizona state Rep. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Phoenix), a friend and fellow student in my program at Harvard this summer.
