Careless with my money, nailed me right there. Course I was born 40 miles from the Louisiana border and so I guess the old Cajun saying, "Spend it all" comes into play. Daddy, granpappy and great grand pappy all buried in the same neck of the woods. I was a Young Republican in college until I realized what snakes and snobs they were (even at that age!) Remained in the Peoples Republic of Austin till the traffic got horrendous (17 years ago), then moved back to the woods. (South of the Republic in a red area) We work hard for the Democratic party making thousands of signs each year, we encourage the youth to become politically aware and active. Some of us call ourselves 'radical democrats'. Being on the inside, I can tell you for sure that our area has more Democat voters every year. We are indeed sliding toward purple. As the Republicans keep constantly shooting themselves in the foot, I expect that slide will become a slipping toward blue even faster as time goes by. Keep da faith mon! Peaceout.
