It is simply not happening due to A) the demographic shifts guaranteeing D votes and B) the dire intolerance and social penalties that are carried for voting R.
Social penalties that can be completely alleviated by people lying about who they voted for or just letting it be assumed. Just because most of the Republican voters on this forum and most others are loud-mouthed braggarts doesn't mean everyone else is. I guarantee you there are plenty of people out there who talk the Democrat talk, vote Republican in the booth, and then join in the "They can't have gotten that many votes, who would vote for them, they must have cheated!" bitching the day after. It may not be enough to flip entire states but they're there and I'd bet you there's going to be a lot more of them in the upcoming election, because they can see all their friends are in an Orange Man Bad frenzy and that frenzy is partially what's driving them to vote R, they just won't ever admit it.
