I think Mass pays people to move to Maine.<br />Also, because there are no jobs in Maine, all the young and talented people all leave, leaving the degenerates of society in a higher concentration.<br /><br />I think NH will not be long in following the same pattern, unfortunately.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05456587175845040114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-60748868292581756722010-01-28T11:24:50.703-05:002010-01-28T11:24:50.703-05:00Your point about not being a crusader is well take...Your point about not being a crusader is well taken. While Sarah Palin did not choose to abort her child, I have seen no evidence that she has crusaded about changing the abortion laws. Her<b> choice</b> on the issue is what riles up the libs. <br /><br />Personal disclosure: my stance on abortion is similar to Brown.Gringonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-42484162222670677742010-01-25T15:04:54.332-05:002010-01-25T15:04:54.332-05:00Our libertarianism is a cultural preference for no...<i>Our libertarianism is a cultural preference for non-interference rather than a crusading spirit of repealing various drug, gun, or sex laws.</i><br /><br />I think this is true in a good part of the old conservative Upper Midwest/Middle Border as well.<br /><br />A minor quibble over the 'Brown didn't run as a Republican' line. Maybe it got more play on the Internet than TV but did you see the commercial featuring a newsreel of JFK morphing into Scott Brown? The subtitle identifying JFK prominently included the word 'Democrat' (not just a weaselly D-MA) that changed into ‘Scott Brown Republican’. I got the impression that he wasn’t obscuring his party affiliation in the way I’ve seem some candidates. It may not be directly comparable but how many of Obama’s ads mentioned his party identification?Der Hahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967487071137862252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-79016018978808478362010-01-24T20:10:47.120-05:002010-01-24T20:10:47.120-05:00Yes, the irony is great, at least for those who co...Yes, the irony is great, at least for those who consciously left for tax reasons. They drag others in their path, however, who have no clue why there is a job in NH rather than where they came from.<br /><br />Those folks tend not to vote right.Assistant Village Idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978011985085795099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19305198.post-23617801291980347712010-01-24T14:18:40.273-05:002010-01-24T14:18:40.273-05:00I spent some time in New Hampshire a few years ago...I spent some time in New Hampshire a few years ago. It seemed to me at the time that everybody in Vermont worked for the government and that added to the tilt left. That was obviously an exaggeration but seemed to have some merit.<br /><br />New Hampshire has had an influx of Mass tax refugees who, unfortunately, brought their voting patterns with them. That is why most western state residents hate California tax refugees.Mike_Knoreply@blogger.com
