Being one of those “blue refugees (we’re scheduled to close on a house at the end of December),” I get a little concerned. Apparently, much if calipornia and NYC is taking up residence in the Sunshine State, including many major and minor celebrities. As an example, Mick Jagger bought a house in Sarasota. My realtor says the influx from the SF Bay area is tremendous.
These folks may have had reality smack some sense into them on some issues, but I have my doubts that they will all have become thorough-going conservatives.
I’m a FL resident as of this past Nov. 15. I always tell people down here, when they ask where I’m from, that I am from Maryland, but I’m not bringing that down here with me. :-)
