Seriously, are you retarded? You ask a question with a unproven premise. Now you get called out on it, yet you don't produce the proof.
It is a simple callout and question, where is the proof those moving are liberals?

that is a good argument. I hear that sometimes as well. the number 1 reason, since I live in a town that is infested with NY'ers is the tax complaints. this place isn't that much warmer than NY.

Do you have a hard time understanding data and statistics that you need cartoons?

People move here for our 'low cost of living', and 'family friendly lifestyle', yet vote in such a way to make this area like the one they escaped. Insanity...
Do you own the whole state of NC? I assume you don't. So who are you to ***** and moan about people moving to where they want to live?

you cant figure out that people move off the coast because of money? And the cost of housing went up and up because he lowered the rate. wow you are not working with a full head of brains.

Michigan is not a Democratic state, despite its Presidential voting record. It's actually pretty conservative socially. There are a lot of what I call UAW liberals in Southeast Michigan (not really progressives).

What really happens is that liberals make their areas so desirable that all the red's move in and try to become liberal (CA for example).

Then the red's get here and realize they cannot loosen up or compete with the education level, so they get angry, **** off the liberals and make them want to move away.

Liberals have all this extra cash from being "elite", so they think "WTF I'll move to some cheap trailer park, buy a mansion and be the King of the Place".

Which happens to be in a red state.

That's reality folks.
