The *Crintons supposedly come from Arkansas. They get a head start.
Wisconsin is still dusting off felonies that haven't been seen in decades.
Cally gets even closer to the Chicoms - just because of the earthquakes.
New Joisey? Fegedaboudid...
The *Crintons supposedly come from New York. Uh, oh.

Auwe, y'all don't even come close... the People's Republic of Hawaii... best banana republic in the 50. Cronyism, government employees' unions, and total DemocRAT rule of the governor's house, the house, the senate, not to mention the federal offices for almost as long as it's been a state.

Come on, your not even trying. If you want to go way back, we started the revolution really, when the Mooncussers tricked an english ship into running aground( the ol' fake lighthouse trick) and pillaged and burned it. George's attempts to punish the pirates of the Cove led to the revolution. We don't punish pirates here, we elect em.
Again and again.
Heck, you ain't got a political career in this state if you don't have a felony conviction on your resume.

What a fun thread. My vote would have to be a state heavy with lawyers, unions, mobsters, rats, and restrictive laws. New Jersey comes to mind.

Tommy reformed WI's welfare system. Many other states followed suit with what he managed to do.

Washington DC!
OK, its not a State per se, but it is the weekday home to more RAT Senators and Congressmen than anywhere else -not to mention DNC Headquarters. Think "Death Star"

"think Louisiana....ala edwin edwards, jim brown, don odom, sherman bernard and others not to mention mary landrieu that stole the election from woody jenkins and is preparing to steal this one as well." I'm from Louisiana and moved to Washington state five years ago. I can promise you that a state governed by competent crooks (Louisiana) is better than one governed by incompetent do-gooders (Washington).

connecticut was once very bad, during the Stella ella Grosso, and her stooge Lt Gov. Bill O'Neal, and then that outstanding turncoat Lowell Weiker, but 2 straight Republican Governorships, and a very likely 3rd, John Rowland is like 19 points ahead of his currently broke demorat chalenger. Its still a socialist paradise, but not quite as bad as it once was.
To: Wonder Warthog
as least edwards always admitted he was a crook....he didn't deny drinking, gambling and carousing....if a snake is a snake everday, at least you know you are dealing with a snake.

WHICH FREEPER HAS THE MOST CORRUPT STATE? I just saw a pole from Chicago that said Illinois was the most corrupt and to prove it they admitted that 20% of the names on the survey were deceased people.

Well, I've lived in a bunch of them, and I'm something of a political expert, but I'd say Maryland, Louisiana, and Rhode Island probably take the cake. New Jersey and Massachusetts still have a number of good, effective, and honest local governments, as does California. To be really, totally corrupt, a state has to have all the governments -- state, county, town -- in on the scam.

New Jersey, where my husband's family managed our then rental property, telling everyone the house was theirs, and pocketing lots of rents. Politicians in New Jersey simply reflect the lack of human quality of that state.

(the ol' fake lighthouse trick)Wasn't that used in the '78 Rose Bowl game?
Again, we revert back to Cally - no?

The klintons are in New York.

Not a state, which is too bad, Teddy Roosevelt's only mistake in my eyes. At least its the only one I know of.
To: Libloather
The Peoples Republic of Kalipornia (CA) tops all for RAT corruption and leftist idiocies.

A Pole from Chicago? What do the Hungarians think?

Tommy Thompson, I miss you!!!!! Yeah right...now his dumb ass brother is gonna pull a Ross Perot and deliver us up to Doyle...the guy that wants to have every cartridge and every primer owner charged with felonies unless they are for single shot rifles.... Not to mention Doyle's inability/unwillingness as a prosecutor to go after certain crooked democrats?
