How to kill a red state
There are lots of ways a Democratic president can punish a traditionally conservative state.1) Destroy the coal industry
2) Destroy the auto industry
3) Use their own tax money to relocate an industry that's been here for 125 years.
"Prompting protests from Ohio officials, a Georgia city has asked the federal government for money from the $787 billion stimulus package to help finance the transfer of NCR Corp. from Dayton to Georgia.
Although Columbus, Ga., Mayor Jim Wetherington said he does not know if the federal government will approve his request, he wants stimulus money to help refurbish a 340,000 square foot facility and construct a 100,000 square foot building for NCR to make ATMs." Columbus Dispatch.
So much for keeping "American jobs" at home. Just move them around with their own tax money.

From Gordon Gekko's Taxman blog: "Now, the governor isn't to blame for a 120 year old company relocating unless he hasn't done anything during his time in office to make Ohio more attractive to businesses.
I don't think that blessing the state with Keno, the only thing he's done in office, qualifies."
