Urban Vs. Rural

Joe Monahan suggests New Mexico split for Clinton and Obama based on geography - urban (Obama) vs. rural (Clinton), with southern NM edging towards Clinton:
[Obama] looked like a real city slicker, losing just about every county in the mostly conservative Second District. His performance was incredibly narrow in a geographic sense. He picked up the lion's share of his support in Bernalillo, Santa Fe and the aforementioned Los Alamos. He carried them all. Hillary owned much of the state, but voter turnout was lightest in her strongest areas. Obama also ceded to Hillary Dona Ana, Grant and Eddy--the southern counties with a tinge of liberal Dems.
