Can you list the other ones? I've just listed the ones where I've seen the govs come out publicly and said they will not.

Kentucky, thank goodness, has a Democratic governor who has already instructed the state to start creating our exchanges - much to the displeasure of our KY Republican senators Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell, who would prefer to have our poorest people continue to be uninsured and not receive health care.

Found two more:

Republican Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin
Republican Gov. Terry Brandstadt of Iowa.

Too bad, poor people of those states - your governor denies you health care. And too bad, insured citizens of those states - you will continue to personally pay for these uninsured (freeloaders) in your ER costs and insurance premium costs.
