It's really pretty there. But, as you point out, it is positively infested with libtards.
If I were moving, I'd probably pick Nevada, Texas, Colorado, or Washington (pretty, like Oregon, but without an income tax, despite the best efforts of Mr Bill's dad). Or one of the Dakotas, if I needed work.
Washington is nice enough if you can avoid King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Those are the big three big Blue tails that wag the otherwise Reddish dog. Nine Blue counties in 2012, 30 Red ones.
