CNN about to reveal 10 smartest states - any bets on how many are blue?

[Happyhippychick]

I'll be humble. I think 9 out of 10.

[Happyhippychick]

1. They are (lowest to highest)

NJ
WA
MN
VA
NH
VT
CT
CO
MD (my state!)
MA is number 1!!!

[RandySF]

3. And who won those states in 2008? :)

[L. Coyote]

5. And they all have collective bargaining

[pnwmom]

7. Colorado smarter than Washington? Something's wrong with the numbers.

:shrug:

12. Dangfangled Boulder.

:D

[louis-t]

8. Hmmm, looks like 6 of 10? are blue.

Am I right?

[rox63]

10. And the other 4 are purple n/t

[Sonoman]

11. And they are all pretty much the same color (or lack thereof). nt

[bluestate10]

17. Not a red state among the bunch, the closest is NH, and it is at worst blue-pink. nt.

2. lemme guess

1. Vermont
2. California
3. Virigina
4. Washington
5. New Hampshire
6. North Carolina
7. Oregon
8. Conneticut
9. Pennsylvania
10. New York

[Sonoman]

13. Not CA or NC, too many poor people.

I'll bet the rest are pretty much all on the list.

[louis-t]

9. Giggety.

[RKP5637]

15. LOL !!! n/t

[Zoeisright]

6. All of them would be my bet.

And, the biggest welfare states (welfare as in, receiving more federal dollars in aid than they pay out in federal taxes) are all red.

[cali]

14. 7 out of 10. MA or NJ will be number 1

At least 3 out of the 10 will be New England States.

[valerief]

16. In ten years we'll all be morons, at the rate the Bagger Govs are going. nt

[Kingofalldems]

South Carolina
Georgia
Louisiana
Texas
Alabama
Mississippi
