think it's a very nice place to live to think it isn't for millions who choose to be here. And we like our winters here, which are very nice as long as I can be happy with the frogs in the marsh instead of a wealth of concerts closeby if we could only afford to move wherever I chose. I can.

I notice that that article said TX is drawing most migrants from Florida and California, so it seems likely that, from this one trend anyway, FL could get a net outflow of conservatives. Hope, hope! And of course more of the old RWers are always dropping dead or, frequently, moving back to wherever to be with family.

One reason I feel sad for our once-friend is that somehow he missed that close to half of Floridians vote blue. And most of the in-migration to the east coast where they've settled is from NE states. Not blue enough to draw people seeking blue safety (that's sad!), but he has a rude awakening coming if it hasn't already happened. (Hate to think how he might take it if tRump had to sell Mar-a-Lago and move to someplace with no extradition. )
