I live in a small Midwestern city of roughly 100,000 people, and I deliver the local paper on a daily basis. I have about 130 customers, and all told, I probably pass around 300 single family residences on my route. About a month ago, yard signs started popping up, and it got me to thinking (something I can do alot of when I'm by myself at 2 o'clock in the morning!)

The other day I happened to notice that my wife's October issue of Working Mother magazine contained a list of the 100 Best Companies to work for. Every time I see one of these lists, I just have to take a look. And the first thing I usually do is to see if my home state of Wisconsin is on the list anywhere (it is, twice). I then began to look at the other companies on the list and what state they are headquartered in, and wondered if I was starting to see a trend in relation to the old blue state/red state map from the 2004 election.
