There's more than just Texas.

Probably most states have some sort of petition on there. It's not a shock that the Southern states have the most signatures.

I say let'em. It'll be funny to watch when they realize that moonshine and meth labs don't make a good economy. It would also attract all the hillbillies from the remaining states. Take your country music and go. :P

Questions: Would the South be too proud to accept monetary assistance every hurricane season? Would Republicans be forced to move closer to the middle knowing they would not win another presidential election or a majority in the House or Senate without the Southern states? Would the remaining United States allow them to create a large military?
