We've gone from 13 original colonies to 13 liberal colonies, so let 'em merge with Canada.

States with the highest percentage of votes for Kerry:

(DC 90(%Kerry)-9(%Bush))

1) MA 62-37
2) RI 60-39
3) VT 59-39
4) NY 58-40
5) NY 58-40(shame, shame, shame)
6) MD 56/43
7) CA 55-44
8) IL 55-45
9) CT 54-44
10) HI 54-45
11) ME 53-45
12) WA 53-46
13) NJ 53-46

The remaining Kerry states(OR, MN, MI, PA, NH, WI) were all within 4% or less.

And if it ever happened, OR, WA, CA, PA, MD, DE, MI, IL, and NY would split up, while MN and WI would probably not leave.

Well there were always Royalists, about 30% in 1776.

All the good people left the blue zone leaving the Royalist detritus to proliferate.
