You're looking at this from a very black and white, all or nothing perspective. Also, your position presupposes that these positions are static and fixed, not constantly in flux. Is there not a concerted effort to "make Texas blue" or "flip Georgia". If either, or both of these things happen does that not bolster my position and weaken yours? Or are you saying such an occurrence is impossible and therefore nothing to ever be considered?
I am not saying it is impossible for some red state to flip blue or some blue states to flip red. I made that point repeatedly earlier in this thread.
The point that you are missing is that the majority would not have anything to do with state size because if there is a majority of blue states it would include 5 of the 10 least populated states. Vermont, Delaware, Rhode Island, Main, and New Hampshire.
The fact is that you don't really care about state size by population. All you care about is if the states are conservative or liberal. You don't care about a tyranny of a MAJORITY. All you are afraid of is a tyranny of LIBERALS. It is about protecting the control by the people who share your ideology instead of protecting the interests of the less populated states.
