I get your drift, but as a native Illinoisan now retired in FloriDUH let me tell you that the problem here is the transplants from New York City and its environs that put the DUH in FloriDUH.
They are everywhere, loud, pushy and aggressive Democrats....seemingly all of them retired from the NYC street and sewer departments .....and now moled into every town board, homeowners association board, election commission and parade committee in the state.
They surround me....and they all still love Obama.
The native southern-type Floridians are conservative and vote GOP and are in a constant state of fright and retreat from the perpetual onslaught of the busy, intrusive, hyper, irritatingly-accented, noisy, pushy, condo-commando, socialist-gimme NYCers that never seem to sleep or to lie back in this paradise to smell the hibiscus, LOL.

Hi Leni, as a current resident of the People's Socialist RepuliK of the Sick and Illannoyed, I know Illinois isn't much (if any) better. Your comment re: the east coast transplants from NY (and I hear NJ also) isn't the first time I've heard that, and I believe it to be true. The retired snow-birds that infest FloriDUH probably do ruin it for the rest of y'all.
