Before the CW, the slave/free line was a clearcut regional 
boundary. During the war, the USA/CSA border was equally defined. 
But now there is a large swath that identifies as neither northern 
nor southern. D.C., Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia, parts of 
Kentucky, and northern Virginia are all in this border region. The 
rest of Virginia outside the DC area remains firmly entrenched in 
the South--but Kerry beat Edwards in every congressional district, 
surprisingly.
