Part of me wishes that Texas would secede and take the rest of the red states with it. The blue states are tired of supporting the red states' welfare needs. I say that only part of me supports the secession of the red states because my state would be entirely red were it not for a few (thankfully large) blue jurisdictions. On the whole, I am OK with the union as it is. In fact, I like being a southerner, even if I barely qualify as one.
