A little of both perhaps? ;o>
Naw, AZ is "convenient" to California (right next door), so we get "outnumbered" by them. If they can stand the heat here (it was 116 degrees in Phoenix on Sunday), they can stand anything.
AZ is also attractive to NY'ers, and Chicagoans. So between the three "entities" encroaching upon the state, I think the "locals" (as well as those who've moved to the state and actually "assimilated" into the conservative norm here) need to circle the wagons and stake their ground.
