San Diego was a conservative enclave for quite sometime but it like any enclave left in that State.
In time,it just disappears into the liberal fabric of this state.It is hard to actually care about people or what is going on in your city when you are always surrounded by strangers.
As for what is going on with these guys,the same thing is happening in Los Angeles as public employees grab their spoils and make a run for the door.
True liberals to the core.
