Get the United States mug.NON-BIASED DEFINTION: In recent years, in the U.S. only, a red state has come to mean a state that traditionally votes Republican, as opposed to a blue state which traditionally votes Democrat.
In the past, media would use maps with red for one party and blue for the other, with no set standard. The current trend was set during the 2000 Presidential election, when NBC used it. The race was very close, and because of this, Tim Russert was often heard to say things like "Bush needs x more red states in order to win, and Gore needs x more blue states in order to win." Because the coverage was being watched so intently by so many people, the color scheme stuck, and is now used by all networks.
What many people don't realize is that this color scheme is actually the opposite of traditional political colors. Red has always been associated with socialism and communism (i.e. extreme forms of liberalism) as seen on flags of countries such as the P.R.C., the U.S.S.R., and the D.P.R.K. On the other hand, blue is most often associated with conservatism, and sometimes facism (i.e. the extreme form of conservatism). Most nations still use this color scheme.
It may be that NBC assigned these colors at random, or it may be because Republican and red both start with R. Neither party has officially adopted these colors. This color scheme has often led to confusion when residents of other countries see a political map of the U.S. or hear Americans discussing red states versus blue states.

When I hear the term "red state" I automatically think of China or North Korea, not Texas or Utah. It's such a pet peeve that the U.S. got red state and blue state backwards!

Get the Sin State mug.Located in Clarksville, Tennessee, off of the banks of the Cumberland River (i.e. Nashville's sewer), Austin Peay State University (APSU) is a four year public university to attend when one has just enough money to join the exodus out of Memphis, Tennessee, but not quite enough to escape Tennessee itself. APSU retains an environment where music, art, the humanities, and academic dishonesty (in "dem tuff classes") are greatly appreciated as STEM departments at APSU dramatically lower their standards so that students cannot fail on campus. A diploma from APSU will definitely make you stand out well—like an un-robbed house in Memphis. However, good luck anywhere else on Earth! Let's go Peay!
I want to attend Austin Peay State University so that I can walk alone on an empty, silent, freezing, windy campus, smell the Cumberland River's sewage, listen to the highways' traffic, eat at the extremely limited dining facilities on campus, succeed in my classes that do not prepare me for anything, and get an APSU diploma that will only land me a minimum wage job for the rest of my life. Let's go Peay!

-"That stupid person just asked me if in Africa we live in trees and have pet elephants, I wonder where he is from."
-"He must be from the United States!"
