Also, it seems rather lame to only define these cities' conservatism by whoever they chose to represent them in Congress. Some of these towns had little say in their representative--for example, I think Neugebauer was first sent to Congress by a district that didn't include Abilene.

Why not talk about mayors, local initiatives, and local institutions more?

The summary offered by the editors of Human Events is limited for obvious reasons. Representation to the Congressional House offers a great deal of insight into the politics of a certain city. I can't think of a better conservative publication/news outlet then Human Events to judge specific aspects of conservative living.
