[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't we combine DC with MoCo, PG, Arlington and Fairfax County into a state? That would give it a combined population enough to justify being a state. And as bait to the Republicans, it'd mean both the rest of Virginia and even Maryland suddenly turn much more reddish. Balances things out all around. Now lets see how the partisans gleefully rubbing their hands at the prospect of two more Dem senate seats react to this....as that will tell you everything you need to know. [/quote] Well, using your logic we would need to move some other things around since DC is already bigger than several states. So we would merge Alaska with Hawaii; the Dakotas go together; Vermont and New Hampshire smush, etc. [/quote]
