DC should not be a state, but if it had to be, it should annex Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Prince George's, and Montgomery Counties to actually have a reasonably size and coherence to it. I suspect Dems wouldn't go for that, though.

Actually, throwing Loudoun and Prince William into DC as well might make this a politically fair deal. The Dems get two rock solid Senate seats in the new DC state while turning VA into a swing/tilt GOP state. Worse case is the Ds get a net zero Senate seats, although they could certainly pick off a VA seat in a good year.
