oh, I forgot... re: "stereotypically liberal denizens of parts of California"... that appears to be abating of late. They may be louder, but we're growing. And Ventura County has always been a republican stronghold.

This is just wonderful to see. They predicted 10000 visitors. Then they bumped it to 25000. They may hit 100,000 before the end of the day. Helicopters all over the place. Cars lined up for as far as the eye can see in any direction. The line, I can't even describe the line. Last night at 12:30AM they were doing the wave because the buses showed up. They are 4/5 abreast and it starts at the security point, snakes past administrative, science, arts buildings back and forth like Disneyland. Then down into the grass and into the back parking lot back and forth down into the bungelows. You get tired just walking to the back of the line. For an area whose people are pretty use to lines with Disneyland, Hollywood Oscars, etc., this is WAY beyond anything I've ever seen.

County has always been a republican stronghold.

I know that parts of California have long been more conservative, and obviously the people of the state have elected Republicans like Reagan for state office. However, in areas like LA and San Francisco, the general expectation is that people are more liberal. If that's changing, then good, if not, then it's up to the rest of California to keep producing and voting for candidates in the tradition of President Reagan.
