There are some who doubt that this migration is going to strengthen the GOP electoral lock in the Sun Belt. Instead, they see this migration further diversifying the South and West, both socially and politically.

I don't think so. I think when they leave the northeast, they also leave behind the grossly unbalanced democratic hold on the media. With alternative information with a conservative slant in these southern and western locations, the NE migrants will be absorbed into the conservative south.

Control of the media (TV, radio, print, web, church, etc.) is the key.

Nope.

I live in New Hampshire, where we have one of the most conservative newspapers in the country, the Manchester Union Leader. Last I saw, the Union Leader had more circulation in New Hampshire than all the competition put together.

But the flood of tax refugees from Taxachussetts DID NOT leave their liberal worldview behind. In fact, many of them are "activist" for this that or the other social program.

Case in point, the "public" school tax disaster that is looming over our heads.

At times I don't believe these people were tax refugees at all, but rather that they were "plants" sent here by their communist bosses to spread the seeds of socialism all over our state.

Migration of liberals is a BAD thing.

I prefer they stay put and wallow in their own mire, rather than polluting the few conservative states that remain.
