You deny TX major population centers like Austin, Dallas and Houston are becoming increasingly liberal and more controlling with many becoming more govenrment dependent in these population centers?

I don't see him denying it, but if you were actually from here you would realize that the urban centers are becoming more liberal because the conservatives are moving out: mostly to the suburbs just outside the city.

I'm in a county just outside Dallas. I don't think there is a single elected Democrat in the entire county. It was unusual to see an Obama sticker here last year, and I think that was someone commuting in from Dallas to one of several corporate headquarters -- think PepsiCo, FritoLay, DrPepper, EDS (although they were acquired by HP, there is still a big presence here), JC Penney.

As I posted earlier, I'm not worried about an influx of liberals into Texas. The worst of them wouldn't be caught dead here. They would rather go onto public assistance and spend the day posting diatribes about Texas every time there is a natural disaster or accident.

The ones that move to Texas are already conservatives, or are apolitical and are easily convinced.

You think this is something new?

A new trend?

CA and other states went through this years ago...Some of you folks seem really behind the times.
