What more could you want.

Less winter? Not so close to Boston and Vermont?

Here's an interactive election map from November.

I live in western Wisconsin. The people up here are the nicest I've ever met, and cheerful, like in Fargo. Lots of farmers in the western part and they all seem to be solid democrats but they are pretty conservative in their lifestyle. No one gets in anyone's faces about politics but I have an old Palin sticker (from 2008) on my truck and no one bothers it.

We just elected a republican ticket for governor and Lt. Gov., a few new republican congressmen and a new republican senator. The statehouse is majority republican, so things will be changing around here. We're on our way to getting constitutional carry in the spring.

Gov. Scott Walker has declared that Wisconsin is open for business.

Remove every state that is unionized and you have Conservative America.

The cities are the problem in nearly every state.

Considering that according to the last census, the USA is now something like 85% urban, that's like saying the people are the problem. The stix are now just to unpopulated to control anything unless prairie dogs win the right to vote.

Their use of the old blog trick of making you click through eleven pages to read the article so they can force you to look at more ads is a big negative.

I agree that in many ways SF is a terrible place for conservatives to live.
However, I view living in SF as a challenge. I view living in this city as an opportunity to educate, to confront.
Far, far too many people who live in this very beautiful but very broken city are never forced to listen to the views of conservatives. Those conservatives views that are heard are denigrated or dismissed out of hand.
My role is to refuse to be dismissed, to force the Lefties/Greenies to listen to me or at least to acknowledge that other views exist.
I do this because I believe that it makes little sense to preach to the converted. I don't expect to be very successful but I will be heard.

Michael, on a hunch, I read your profile page and it is clear you are the best person to offer this observation to.

NewzRealBlog always has VERY interesting articles that rarely fail to pique my interest, but I have totally stopped going to the site to read them. I might follow the thread, but go to the site? No way. No matter how enticing or earthshaking the information is, it is just not worth following the trail of informational breadcrumbs that are portioned out over a seemingly endless progression of pages.

If you have any say so in the design/format of the site, (and I think at the very least, you might have the ear of someone who does :), I would offer that if you would like to increase traffic to your site, that you might consider addressing this.

FReeregards,

What more could you want?

Lower property taxes; NH's are among the HIGHEST in the nation, along with the costs of housing...lower car registration fees, NH's is $75, PLUS hundreds of dollars in 'town taxes' AND $30 inspection fees (at a minimum)...NH citizens could live without the hundreds of dollars they have to shell out for tolls every year getting to work...lower heating costs would be nice, but we all know heating oil is heading to $5 per gallon...$1500 to fill your tank every six to eight weeks..? Ouch.

The conservative natives have fled...a majority of NH residents are now from 'somewhere else'.

If you like NH for some reason, great. But no conservative in their RIGHT mind should ever consider moving here...south or west is best. (My wife was BORN here, and she doesn't even recognize NH anymore...she can't wait to get home to the sunny south.)

Propane cheaper than $4.40/gal?

Indiana has a lot of folks who want to keep the part of the state SOUTH of Marion County pure and pristine. Although there's the makings of a major city in that region, the population is really spread out ~ which enables the growth of morel mushrooms ~ and NO, you don't get to know where they are!

There's another group who want Marion county to have plenty of good jobs to commute to.

Chicago people should stay in place ~ not go to Indiana.

[La Lydia]

That is one of the most annoying websites on the planet.

[muawiyah]

No, Brown County is a bad match for Chicago people. They must go back.

I made it all the way through her list and I have to agree with her final point. The more quickly we abandon these blue states, the faster they will collapse. It’s time to let it happen. Quit propping them up in the name of “opportunities to educate.” The sooner it fails and collapses, the faster we will be able to swoop in and rebuild.

For those seeking a town dripping with traditional values that is in a red state with no income tax:

It is an amazing place. Conservative scholars and achievers visit all the time - Justice Clarence Thomas just visited on Friday.

The more urban the more Democratic;I think it is something like when rats are too crowded in their cages they go insane.

I have a pellet stove, I think that I might use 120 gals of Propane a year, I saw the trend.

[thesearethetimes...]

Agreed. Check my post at 47, if you are so inclined. It is all on one page - I promise ;)

It went from 3% of your income to 5% of your income.

[who knows what evil?]

Pellet stove = paperweight during power failure. You’ll need that generator backup (more expense)...
