Yeah, all the Dems can win are almost 50% of the populace. Amazing they have the power they do.

Here's the thing; all those red areas are so amazingly underpopulated. I mean, damn near desolate. So while all that red may look real good or bad, depending on your outlook, the fact is that this country is still split almost 50/50.

I mean, if you just want to talk geographic size, Alaska is half the size of the continental United States, and red, but has less people than on tiny part of my home town, Chicago.

And secession nowadays is a silly idea. What SHOULD have happened is Lincoln could have told the South that they could seceed as long as they let blacks and Native Americans leave first. Then the U.S. could have developed without the money drain of the South...yeah, thats the ticket. I am being mildly facetious, of course. Mildly.
