Demographic Trends Could Make It Harder for Obama and Democrats

Those raw numbers are not the full story
Mike, those numbers are not the whole story. If Nevada is +1 seat the question becomes "who moved into the state to give it more seats?" Are they Reid supporter types or are they more akin to the Arizonans who support McCain?
In the past people in those two states and others have remarked about "Californication" leading to liberal city dwellers modifying the state's political landscape.
You might expand this tiny article into something a little more meaningful by teasing out of the raw data what the politics of the changed numbers might be. If Arizona and Nevada picked up a large chunk of San Francisco Bay or Los Angeles area liberals their net gains might well become net losses.
