I know after i went to Atlanta, Nashville and Memfrica last year that i indeed do live in a bubble. Their "norm" ain't the "norm" in your hometown of hartselle.
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.

Due to my work history I traveled all over the US. I have good friends WA, CA, WI, ME, AX, NC, PA and others. I spent lots of time in offices in those states and a majority of the people have the same ideals as we do. I don’t believe for one minute we are an echo chamber.
The issue we face is the Demoncrats absolutely kick our butts at coming together to support 1 person and getting to the polls. Us Republicans can’t or rather won’t do that. When we lose elections by a close margin it’s typically because “I cannot stand that guy, even if he’s a republican so I’m not voting”. Democrats historically rally around the primary winner. However, they have a lot of issues this go around so I’m curious to see what happens.

..even in rural Alabama there are Democrats around every corner. Because in most places around here, you don't have snowballs chance in hell of getting elected without (D) next to your name

In my opinion it is a CITY DWELLER versus COUNTRY DWELLER thing. Just look at that map. The red areas are rural, the blue are population density areas, cities.
Country people tend to be much more self dependent and not have the need for big government. Many even grow their own vegetables, shoot their own meat. They don't depend on the Government for transportation, etc. They don't think meat all comes from the grocery store. The majority have guns in their houses, for both hunting and home defense. They do not like big government.
City dwellers depend on public transportation and other government services much more. The depend on all their food from the local grocery store. They do not like guns and are scared of them. They NEED big Government.
That map reflects that pretty well in most of those states.

Oklahoma got it right. Not a single blue county.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Oklahoma got it right. Not a single blue county. Looks like WV and AK did as well. Factoid: Prior to Obama in '08 Jackson County Alabama hadn't voted Republican in over 100 years. Hadn't even had a local Republican candidate be elected either. Now it's almost impossible to get elected with a D by your name. See, Obama did do some good things.

Yes, that is the Blackbelt and is a predominately African American population, which explains the voting for Democrats.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Why is there a blue streak across alabama? Why is there a blue streak across alabama? Because there are a lot of Democrats in those areas.
