In theory it may be a workable idea, but I don't see how it would work in real life. Say you had the country split into a conservative America and a liberal America, most of the southern states would go to the conservative side. What happens to the pockets of blue in a red state, like Atlanta? Would those people either have to move or just be satisfied with being a minority in their new country?
What if Florida decided it wanted to join with the liberal America? You would have hundreds of miles of another country dividing it from the rest of its home nation.

Well the "pockets" could simply pick up and move to a liberal state. Problem solved.
Breakup of the union is inevitable. The economic, political and social differences are so vast...I say break it up......break it up.
Seems like a good solution [breakup existing union]to me. Liberal progressives can continue to suck off the government "teat" and we Constitutional Republicans get rid of the parasites.
Have a nice day.

We already have that with Alaska. Also with Hawai'i being separated by thousands of miles of ocean.
