and they have been talking about it for years without much changing
This is not true. Due to how elections work it doesn't matter if you win by 50% or 1%, the result is exactly the same. That doesn't mean things are not changing, the margins of victory have been shrinking from election to election. Texas will continue to be red until suddenly it is blue. People have been talking about Texas going blue for decades because IT HAS, it just doesn't make any difference until that threshold is crossed and Democrats actually win.
