Rainbow Triplets (Posted on 2006-12-12)

Twelve nine-letter words, which include a former president of the USA, a state of the USA, and a county in England, have been divided into three-letter groups, producing:

Edu	cON	NeL	quO	oMe	TRE
PeR	Son	jEf	oFF	ErE	thi
inG	iNS	siN	ioN	EtH	kSh
WiS	iRe	YoR	KiL	rOm	oLE
iSe	caT	nCE	Pim	Rti	Mae
tUr	iGN	sPr	Fer	sOV	Lst

Can you work out the twelve words? Pay no attention to the colours of the grid, or to uppercase/lowercase letters!
