I think it makes sense to split it up into the "Midwest" (Ohio/Michigan/Wisconsin/etc.) and the "Plains" (Kansas/Nebraska/etc.) Politically, culturally, and demographically they are quite different.

It's one region with a few sub regions. The four macro-region set up with Northeast (including DC, MD, and DE), the South (including KY, WV, and OK), the West, and the Midwest is clean and logical. Starting on about sub regions needing to be separate makes the exercise pointless.

The official US Census Bureau considers DC, MD, and DE to be Southern, not Northeastern. Which I think is ridiculous today.
