"The northeast had so many people flee their states lost congressional seats. Lots of them came here. Californians make better neighbors than Yankees."

That is scary!

California seems to export two types of progressives:

1. Ones, where there was no doubt re their liberal progressive ways. They just cranked it up when they moved to another state.

2. Chameleon progressives, who kept their progressive intentions under wrap until they took early retirement, often from a public paycheck like policemen, fire fighters, teachers and others living off our taxes and moved to another state. After a year or less in their new state, they shook off their chameleon cloaking and became full pledged liberal progressives.

Former Californians, from both group 1 and 2, became full blown progressives and usually moved into university towns like Eugene/Ashland Oregon or resort/art colony areas like Taos.

Keep in mind that California went through what Colorado is suffering 30 years ago. I have lots of empathy for conservatives in California because I literally feel their pain.

The worst transplant progressives in the Denver area come from Massachusetts and Madison Wisconsin.
