NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Arizona replaced longtime leader Nevada as the fastest-growing state in the union during the 12 months ended July 1, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The population of the Grand Canyon State grew 3.6 percent during that period. Nevada grew by 3.5 percent.

Rounding out the top five growers were Idaho ( 2.6 percent), Georgia and Texas (both 2.5 percent).

In absolute numbers, Texas was the biggest gainer. Its population increased by 579,275 during the period. Second was Florida, which gained 321,697 residents.

If Barr would pick up a few percent and Obama picks Webb McCain could end up in a fight in his home state which is going to encourage everyone to sit on their wallet.

Did you see that nice article about Michelle in AZ today? It also described what is a near collapse of McCain's fund raising in AZ with Bush - they had to keep moving to smaller rooms.


BTW why are you up so late lol
