In the spirit of being a uniter, not a divider, and bipartisanship

What is the tipping then percentage wise? 53%-47%? 54%-46%? 55%-45%?
No. Its not relevant. people vote locally/regionally for different reasons than those on which they base their presidential votes. "Coattails" can never be proven and is always used as a way of fluffing a victory. Bush did well, but so did his opponent. I don't see coattails here. I see one organized smart party versus a not so organized party.

The tipping point? I'd go with anywhere between 100-0 and 65-35.
