And while we're at it, do we really need TWO Dakotas?

No

Ditto with the Carolinas....

The dakotas have less than a million people each. South Carolina has 5 million and North Carolina has over 10 million.

Yes, because what this country needs is more winner-take-all, no compromise contests. That will surely fix things.

Seriously, it's good that purple states can have a senator from each party.

I guess it's all relative when it comes to the Carolinas.

No to court packing. We're not going FDR on the bit.

Otherwise, fine. Go for it. See how far you get.

Agreed but I’m sure the appeal to authority of losers types will tell us why they shouldn’t even try

Well, we have 2 Virginias, too. 3 if you separate rural from urban Virginia.

I'm fine with the statehoods (PR especially), electoral, not so sure about.

That would be the Sen. Robert Byrd sun.
