Puzzle:

Larry the Liberal lives in California (naturally). He wants to meet his leftist friends who live in a commune in Maine. But he wants to avoid as much as possible traveling through any state that voted for George Bush in 2000 (AKA "red state"). Can you find the best route for Larry?

Challenge #2: How can Larry travel from California to Maine while entering every (continental) blue state so that he can collect generous welfare benefits yet as few red states as possible (where everybody has a copy of Ann Coulter's Treason).
