Shall We Secede?

[gonzai]

Watching Bill Maher, and he's decided to have a bracket-style tournament to determine the dumbest state in the US. Texas has threatened to secede. And it's arguable that the US might be better off without certain Red States.

So how about it? What states should secede and form the Red Nation? IMHO,

Definites:
Texas
Arizona
Florida
Alabama
Mississippi
Utah

Worth arguing:
Georgia
South Carolina
Oklahoma

Which states would you boot?
