Taxachusetts must be balanced because it is empty except for the Kennedy Klan.

One problem I noticed with the map; shouldn't Massachusetts be yellow?

VERTY interested to see what you guys have to say about this. I've heard MANY times how bad this is for the Dems, (NY gets small, SC gets big) but the way I see it, NY stays lib and SC BECOMES lib. That appears to be what we have in VA. So many of these F&*%ing POS scumbags are coming in, that VA is now indistinguishable from MASS.

Well, LA is becoming a red state, and many LA Dems outmigrated to Texas and other states:)

what you are seeing here is why the US is drifting left politically - as people move to the "inbound" states, they bring their politics with them.

If liberal states are staying liberal and conservative states are becoming liberal, that isn't really about migration, it actually means something worse: that nationwide older conservatives are dying off and younger people and immigrants are voting liberal. An ominous sign. If younger people were leaving the Northeast to look for jobs and bringing a conservative, enterpreneurial spirit with them, the symptoms you describe in Virginia wouldn't be happening.

Democrat party fiefdoms despise families, despite all their total BS rhetoric. Such regions are funtionally uninhabitable.

Think San Francisco, Boston, Chicago, Manhattan, Northern New Jersey and all of Taxachusetts.

It is true what you say about Virginia.

While it has not achieved true battleground status, there is an increasing number of Dems coming in, primarily in Northern Virginia.

Twenty years ago, Northern Va was considered the GOP part of the state. Nowadays, it seems as though the Valley, the Piedmont and Southside have earned that honor.

As federal govt continues to grow and grow, Northern Va will become more and more Dem - to the point where it can dictate to the rest of the state.

The phrase "Rats leaving a sinking (liberal) ship" comes to mind.

most of the outflow has to do with cost of living, taxes, and the wages you need to earn to live well in those areas.
