Montana. The democrats here couldn't get elected as republicans in
Pennsylvania. They'd be too far to the right.


I've lived

in PA all my life, but it is becoming such a liberal cesspool that I
may have to retire elsewehere.



A Wyoming address would be good and even more conservative than here. No
taxes.


Why are all of the conservatives states in places that are cold in the
winter? My grandfather always said that the cold winters "kept the
riff-raff out" and I'm beginning to think he was right. :-)

Assuming you were looking for states that weren't quite so cold in the
winter there's Georgia, for starters.
Then there's Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, North Carolina,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona - even Florida
(at least away from Miami/Ft. Lauderdale/Palm Beach).

If you're looking for a conservative home that's not hot in the summer, you
might consider splitting time between Alaska and one of the Southern states.

Most of the south?

Seems half a dozen or so southern states went republican big time yesterday.
Seems the heat is keeping the riff-raff out also.

Good point! I can't take a hot climate so I guess I'm stuck with
Montana and Wyoming... :-) At least the airways shouldn't be so
congested there as here in the northeast.

I have been flying since 1996. In my 1000 hours I have seen an
airplane, not in the vicinity of an airport, maybe 10 times.

Wow, I've flown south along the west edge of the Washington area
(probably 40 miles from Dulles) and had that many planes called out on
one flight!

I'm based in New Jersey. I've seen at least that many in the last 50 hours of flight
time. You could probably see at least five just running the Hudson VFR corridor once.
Probably get five more doing a low-level run down the coast during banner-towing
season. But even if you avoid known high-traffic areas like those, you'll see plenty
of aircraft.

If a man gets into a fight 3,000 miles away from home, he *had* to have
been looking for it.
