Unfortunately the White House is going to give the same response that they gave for the Rubashkin petition.

+1, this effort would probably be better used elsewhere, the petition thing is just another sick joke of the current WH admin.
Wait for it...

Relocate to FL or OH.
Whichever way both those states will go will determine who's in office.  Been that way for 100+ years now.

Perhaps, but the only time in the past 120 years where the outcome was different gave the presidency to Bush over Gore.

That kind of apathy should balance out between Red and Blue states.
