I'll tell you, Jason, I'm a geographer by training. I love maps except one. whoever built the red-blue map did more damage than you would ever imagine. Because you look at that map and you look at South Dakota and say, oh, South Dakota's all red or whatever. That's not true. That is not true. There's a mix.
