But, hell, I'm going to have to retire to some tiny rural swing state - maybe Montana. Montana is nice. Who wants to join me.
And we really have to make Puerto Rico a state after the Hurricane debacle.

Mi has 2 Dem senators. Mass I assume usually does, lots of the other smaller states are Dem enough. The senate will flip flop, and as the population shifts actually remain more as a hedge against 8 states controlling everything.
