“I’m not originally from California, so I won’t contaminate Texas.”

A lot of us who are “native born” Californians have had to watch while Northeastern Gaigin ( Japanese translation Barbarian Bastards) have infiltrated our state from New England. So I guess you need to be careful whom you call “contaminators.” A lot of folks have short memories when discounting California today. After all, we gave the country Ronald Reagan and more recently, Jim and John Robinson. So watch what you say! Still lots of good, decent conservatives in California.

Well said, vette. I'm another native Californian (since the 40's) who is becoming increasingly disgusted with the California hate. Oh, I, too, hate what California's become, but to blame it on the natives is at best naive. We've been inundated by wave after wave of newcomers in the last few decades -- everyone from hippies looking for the fabled Haight-Ashbury to those disgruntled by the politics of their own states to illegal border-crossers.

Look at an election map of California. Aside from the San Francisco Bay, Los Angeles and San Diego areas, California is almost entirely a red state. Those are the areas where the newcomers congregate. (Heck, when I moved down to Los Angeles in the 60's, I didn't meet one single native older than elementary school age.)

Now take a look at a recent Texas election map to see the same pattern emerging. Big city areas (Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Austin) all went for Obama. Those same people (and now their sons and daughters) came to California, trashed it, and are moving on. So stay vigilant, pay close attention to your local and district elections, and please stop trashing those of us who have chosen to stay in our native state to fight as best we can.

The 'Gaigin' of whom you speak, changed the state of my birth so much, that I barely recognized the place by 2005. Despite the fact that I still knew lots of decent conservatives there, we were hopelessly outnumbered by that time.

Had it just been my wife and I, we might have stayed, but we have four kids. I looked towards what sort of California they'd inherit when they were grown, and felt that I couldn't make that choice for them.
