Reapportionment

Apparently, Minnesota could lose one of its eight Congressional seats after the next census. We're growing, just not fast enough. Obviously, that is not a good thing.

The only quibble I have with the article is calling Texas "the mother of all red states." Since most of Texas' growth is in its Hispanic population, and they tend to vote Democratic, Texas may not be the mother of all red states for long. In fact, that's precisely why DeLay et al gerrymandered Texas districts; they know which direction the wind is blowing.
