I mentioned the Blue States talkin' secession:

Here's one of the cartograms from these guys - Maps and cartograms of the 2004 US presidential election results by Michael Gastner, Cosma Shalizi, and Mark Newman at the

They do the same for counties. Pretty cool.

There's some secession talk here and here [same blog].

Of course, these are the same anarchists I linked yesterday.
