Good question, Adam Carolla!

Why aren't committed Democrats moving the most Democrat states? The most Blue states? When Democrats move, the move from their own Democrat (Blue) states to Republican (Red) states.
What's going on? Why? Wouldn't it make more sense for Democrats, if they think they're way of governing is the best, to move to the places in America that are the most like their nirvana? The most like they keep telling us that we should all live?
But no. When Democrats move, lilke out of California or New York, they move to Red states. Like Texas or Florida.
So this topic warrants my "I don't get it" Label.
I don't get why Dems leave their Blue states, move to Red states. And then vote Blue.
Why?
I asked a leftie-progressive friend of mine the other night. Please explain. All he could say was, yes, he might move to, say, Texas, a Red State, but that "I just can't vote Republican". But... but... why?
If they're only going to muck things up again. And it's the reason people are leaving Blue places like LA and NYC. Well, he says, because he hopes that they might do better next time. I say: why not just go for the ones that have already shown they can do better? And to that, no real answer. Or one so confusing I couldn't understand it. We'd had quite a few wines by this stage.
So, I still "don't get it".
In my case: I used to vote left my whole life, Labor in Australia. Followed the Dems in America. Then I noticed that the Reps seemed to be managing things better. So I shifted. That's it. If the Dems ever do do better, I could shift back.
But why be so all "I've always voted left so I always will" about it? Doesn't make sense.
Adam Carolla asks the logical question.
