Wow... did I really do this? What a moron I was!

Given the results of our national election, it appears that our country is extremely polarized and may have irreconcilable differences.

I've spoken to a number of liberals whom I'd describe as reasonably intelligent and well informed, and there appears to be some support in the "blue states" for secession...

So, if a decent amount of people in OR, WA, CA, NY, NJ, MA, VT, ME, and MD are thinking about this issue, is there a solution, and if so, what is it and how can it be executed?

Sounds awful, but maybe best for all in the long run.
