    1. Connecticut (113) - G
    2. Massachusetts (111) - G
    2. New Jersey (111) - G
    4. New York (109) - G

    9. Illinois (104) - G
    10 Delaware (103) - G

  • you know, a recent survey came out that said that the divorce rates in the midwest was higher than the eastern states. Additionally, Kerry's state, named "the most liberal state" by the Bush Administration has the lowest divorce rate in the country. Le sigh, Christian Fundamentalist math.
