Secession: Has it become a reasonable idea?

In other words, "I'm DRoseDARs and I approve this message."

Can someone post me a nice map of which states supported who?

[Arrian]

Earlier in this thread there is one (sorta).

Kerry:

Maine
New Hampshire
Vermont
Massachussetts
Rhode Island
Connecticut
New York
New Jersey
Pennsylvania
Maryland
Washington D.C.
Delaware
Illinois
Michigan
Wisconsin
Minnesota
Nevada
Washington
Oregon
California
Hawaii

The rest voted for monkeyboy. Well, actually I think Iowa is still technically undecided.

[Heresson]

Yes, thanks. I was just about to edit my post and say I've seen it already.

Anyone feel like digging up a by-county map for 2004?

[Arrian]

Isn't that what Dissident is using as an avatar?

I love maps

Someone posted a link to one around here somewhere. Try the Official Election Thread IV. Here's the pic:

Is this grey stain in Illinois Nader or something?

[Arrian]

Maybe it's a tie.

My state, Iowa, could almost be considered divided east and west.

[Heresson]

OK.
If a civil war breaks out, and USA will drown in chaos, I claim everything from Illinois to New York for Poland.
Israel can get Florida and half of New York.
France will be given Luisiana, Britain everything north to New York, etc,
but I want Maryland and Delaware as my personal Empire.
However, if someone will claim it, I;ll be happy with California too
I'm not greedy

Looking at the county map, I'd say the reds would have an easy time of picking off the scattered blues, piece by piece.

[lightblue]

(as this is lsightly discussed in this thread)

How do the red states equate reducing government interference (small government) with receiving federal handouts from the blue states? If they were true republicans wouldn't reject any federal assistance?

True for the North, but it would leave 90% of the military in the hands of South and West (including 90% of the nukes). Do you really want me roaming the world without the restraints of pacifist sissies?

So much for Eurocentism.

That's because the US is like Canada in that regard. Our military is primarily composed of our marginalized redneck yokels and we locate most of our military bases in useless areas that no one else wants either.
