Welcome to FR! One person at a time, that's all we need to convert... BTW, visited NY city (Manhattan) a few years ago (before 9/11), LOVED it, especially Bryant Park.

A lot of us blue staters are red all the way through... I moved to this very red part of southern California from the South Bronx in '76. I worked at the Chase Manhattan Bank at NY Plaza and watched them build the WTC. My family and my sister and brother-in-law work in the financial district. I miss NY and look forward to another visit, albeit by automobile. One million Californians who voted for Barbara Boxer voted for George Bush. I believe that the democrat machine has been stuffing ballot boxes with dead and relocated union members for decades. I think that now we have accurate voting and less fraud, we have reversed their cheating ways. I belonged to the IBEW union for two months in 1974 and still get mail going to my old residence in NYC where I probably voted for Clinton, Clinton and Kerry.
