At the risk of offending other members by hyper-actively posting (although, to be fair, I'm not describing my current location as Nirvana), and being one of those who has chosen to move out of Colorado due to many of those things Caldara mentions, I have but one thing to add: This is news?

I've been using the term "California East" to describe Colorado for at least 5 years or so.

I moved here from CA 8 years ago 1) for a job and 2) to get away from CA. Now that my job is a permanent work from home - I'm preparing my house to sell and leave.

No shit, right? Or, and I know this is crazy talk and way out there logic...but maybe another alternative is to move away from the nonsense and enjoy life instead.

This sounds like the logical choice to me.

Call it a tactical retreat... Why haven't y'all moved to Texas to ensure it doesn't turn blue???

because if TX falls, then all of us are fucked on a Federal level... eventually the cycles will come around the other way- but question is just how far are we going to go to the left first?

Umm Tejas has already fallen. Texicans are just in denial about it.

I guess it depends on how you define fallen... I don't do it by race terms...
I checked- last time it went D in a presidential election was 1976 for Carter.

it's certainly not as far gone as CO, and good luck "changing the culture" (at least outside Austin)... I know they're trying it in urban areas- but Texas pride will make this especially difficult for them.

Race had nothing to do with my post. Austin was lost decades ago. It's Houston and Big D that worry me, combined (as here) with the east and left coast moved in mentality. Granted CO is lost, trying to figure out which hole to plug on the ship is futile.
