Zogby: If America Were 'Survivor' Which State Would You Vote Off?

Holy crap, there’s no love for Texas around here!

Of course, I also vote for Texas.

Actually, I’m kind of surprised that no one has chipped in to say “Los Angeles.”
…Texifornia… a nation stretching from Bakersfield to San Pedro to Tijuana, through El Paso, on to the far shores of Galveston. Las Vegas, just to give the place some class.

Boggles the mind, doesn’t it.

:mad:
Well, OK, all the wheat and stuff is worthless. I’d have to second this state, though, as it would mean 3 fewer Democrats in Congress. :smiley:
Anyway, I’m voting Taxachussets. And move the BoSox to Brooklyn so the fans can just kill each other and be done with it. :stuck_out_tongue:

I don’t think getting buy-in would be all that easy. I mean, what could you offer us that the US government can’t? Plus, it’s Texas. Ewwww. Nobody in New Mexico likes Texas unless they have moved to New Mexico from Texas.

LOL! :smiley: Very entertaining thread…I am always cheered when I read this much moaning and bitterness among those of a certain political persuasion.

I was thinking of taking up a collection to see how much we could give them to take it back :slight_smile:

“Texas, you are The Weakest Link. Good bye!” :smiley:

Florida, shame of the nation. Even ignoring its incredible talent for aggravating sore spots on political issues and its inability to count votes, this is a state where you can’t drive away from the airport without getting carjacked. Good riddance.

And much as it pains me to say it, we have to keep Baja Oklahoma. As crude, stupid, and loutish as they are, they might keep thinking they’re special if they’re pushed out. Plus I’m not giving up Macy’s and tax-free groceries, and Dallas has to get Trader Joe’s and L&L Drive-Ins someday.

Tex…no, Flor…no, probably Tex…no, gotta go with Flori…damn! Can’t we get rid of two? Please?!

Hard to pick. Either Florida or California.

I guess Florida. California has at least one redeeming quality: You can see Nevada from there. I can think of none for Florida.

Vermont is the one shaped like a “V”.

I vote Delaware because it doesn’t exist anyway.

California.

California. They’re nuts, and they’ve got enough money to sustain themselves, and plus we’d be rid of Hollywood. They can take their electoral votes with 'em, too.

Florida’s a very close second, though.

I must go with the majority and agree with Texas, Texas, Texas! But only if we get to keep Molly Ivins and they take back any and all Bushes.

Actually, Florida doesn’t need to be voted off.

Florida just needs a circumcision. Remove SOUTH Florida, and you’ll be removing the clueless counties (regarding voting and tabulation thereof) and the higher crime areas in one fell swoop. :smiley:

Yeeeeehaaaaaa!

Texas, I’ll be seeing you motherf$&*#$%!

You’re all talking about voting out Texas or Florida or California. Haven’t any of you people ever watched Survivor? You need your strong states to win the immunity challenges. So while I like Maine, it’s getting my vote because it’s just not carrying its weight (plus I think it’s forming an alliance with the other New England states). Later, after we merge with Canada and the game goes to individual challenges, is when we’ll vote out Texas.

Little Nemo, you’re my new hero. I’m with you: Maine, I say!

(Although I am reminded of the old saying: “If I owned Hell and Texas, I’d live in Hell and rent out Texas.” To which the other person would say, “Yeah. At least the a/c bill would be cheaper.”)

you know, there’s a good point here.
We only need the part of Texas that’s underground.
So, if we leveled everything that’s above ground…hmmm.

Core of a good idea, there.
:smiley:

But we get the water! And fish! You won’t have fish when we’re gone!

Florida. Any state that earns its own fark.com tag has to go.
