No they dont.
also red and blue are not what those terms actually mean, they describe ideolgy. California was indeed red once, but so was the entire North East. And the South was once blue.
Remember Alabama had 130+ years of only Democrats controlling the legislature, but no one would call it ideologically liberal. North Carolina's streak was almost just as long, Arkansas had a couple of breaks inbetween long streaks of "blue", but no one would call its legislatures or governor's liberal, every member of the arkansas congressional delegation when it was "blue" was a bluedog.
Hillary has no appeal whatsoever to anyone under 40. No one gives a crap about her tired, worn out old ideas.
Hillary has been a bad omen for over 30 years - she has a corrosive impact on everyone who comes in contact with her - she's a succubus.
The worst mistake Hillary could ever make in her life would be to attack Elizabeth Warren, who is fresh, clean and uncorrupt.
Clinton likely has figured that out.
"Clinton and Warren met at the former first lady’s request in December at the Clintons’ home in Northwest Washington, The New York Times reported Tuesday. Clinton asked for policy ideas and suggestions from Warren, according to the Times, but did not seek an endorsement."
Many Democrats on here say the Blue Wall most certainly does include these three states.

Colorado is NOT solidly blue and I don't know anyone who has suggested otherwise.

The blue wall has a specific, commonly accepted, definition which it to say it means the states and DC that no Republican has won since 1988. None of those states are part of the blue wall. If you want to use a different definition of a word or phrase you should clearly specify it.

Ya, it is going to take someone really Conservative, compared to the rest, to do it. Like Reagan did in 80 and 84.
People just thought HW. was like Reagan.
In CO, she is statistically tied (only up by 2) with Rand Paul and Governor Walker. Bush is a quite well-known figure, sure, but are Paul and Walker? To people who don't focus on politics, I'd doubt it, even though Ron is Rand's father and Walker put the unions in their place.
I know some of you guys will say "Ha! Ha! Your candidates are losing just like we knew!" But I keep hearing Hillary will win in a landslide and there are no buts about it. These results would seem to be a bit of a red flag for the Democrats, even if they're not very good for the GOP on their face, especially given that most of our potential candidates don't have the same name recognition that she does. And she still might not run...
What has Hillary done for us lately and the latest scandal should be sending her movement in a tail spin. who are the other DNC Contenders?
And Hilary will not be able to get 98% of blacks to the polls, with Ted Cruz getting a majority of the hispanic vote, like he did here in Texas.
Texas found out, hispanic americans don't like illegal aliens either.
In 2012, Mitt Romney received 29% of the Hispanic vote in Texas. In his Senate race, Cruz received 35% of the Hispanic vote. Conservative whites elected Cruz, not Tejanos. John Coryn actually outperformed Cruz with Texas Hispanics in 2008, garnering 36%. Considering that Texas Hispanics have a record of being more conservative than Hispanics nationally, I wouldn't get my hopes up for Teddy Boy carrying the Hispanic vote.

The one thing I learned form the last presidential election is anyone can find a poll that is favorable to the candidate they choose/ I think pollsters are like weatherman they always predict and sometimes get it right
