This idea comes up from time to time, during the elections usually. I looked at one of the maps that was being thrown around and if you spend a little time on it, it sort of grows on you.

The libs of course tried to make fun of the idea-calling the proposed country Jesusland, but aside from that, the idea isn't at all repulsive. I think that the working conservative base of America could get along one he11 of a lot easier/better alone, than it can having to deal daily with the whiny, hand-out, liberal albatross around our political/economic/social necks.

The problem with that is when you look at maps like this.

I'm not at all sure the state boundaries would be inviolable in any sort of serious unpleasantness.

Hey, don’t forget Sussex County Delaware—we’re red as they come. We’re the southernmost county in the state. The Delmarva peninsula is pretty conservative also.

I should have listened!!

When I was a child and then a teenager in the 50’s, it was not uncommon to hear the phrase “Save your Confederate money, the South shall rise again”!

Damn if it might not just come true!
