Why is California so Leftist? I submit that it is so Leftist, because people who didn’t like where it was headed, simply picked up sticks and moved out.

Now we advocate more of the same?

Folks, if you want our nation to be sound, then encourage the right sorts of people to move back into the state, vote the Marxists out, and reclaim it for the United States we love.

California has a population of around 38 million. We are losing elections by less than 10% of that. If we had 3.5 million more Conservatives in the state, guess what, we win every election.

The 55 electoral votes go the the Republican candidate every time. The state legislature turns back to the right. The governor will be a Republican.

Are folks aware that 16 states now have a Democrat majority. Read the threads here that talk about it.

We have to find a way to turn these states around. We can’t just move out of them and surrender them to the Left. That is a loser’s strategy, and given thought, I think most of us would agree.

Los Angeles just passed a law requiring all porn stars to use condoms.

If that entire industry moves out of the state then the vote might swing a bit more to the right.

However, Jenna Jameson did say she was voting for Romney. So maybe even that prediction is overly optimistic.

"encourage the right sorts of people to move back into the state"

Libertarians, who are a much more unified group than conservatives or Republicans, tried to get a significant percentage of their numbers to move to one state in order to improve their chances to elect candidates to their liking.

They should have chosen a state like North Dakota, but instead settled on the fairly attractive state of New Hampshire, i.e. on the coast, no income taxes, good jobs in Massachusetts, etc.

To date, however, very few have moved to the state and it has drifted further to the left and away from its motto of "Live Free or Die".

It's a nice thought having conservatives move to California, but it ain't gonna happen.

Nice thought. Mexicans already refer to California as Northern Mexico. They are not joking. We lost CA decades ago, now even the last red districts are becoming blue.
