I read or heard from Michael Barone about each state having their Bellwesther areas. As that area goes so goes the State as the saying goes. It was mentioned that Fresno area is California’s Bellweather area. So watch Fresno — any Fresnoites out there to check in?

With San Jose and San Diego waking up on their ballot initiative last Tuesday (a vote similar to Wis btw) I’d say the tides are turning here — but I sure don’t see it here in LA.

I live in San Jose, and it’s not quite as lefty-looney as SF or Berkeley. But for quite a while I used to describe myself as “one of twenty-three conservatives in the Bay Area”, and it seemed to be pretty close to true. But since BHO came along, it seems I run into more “out and proud” conservatives here in the Bay Area than I used to.
