obtuseangler Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I moved down to North Carolina this year and was a bit apprehensive at the "reddness" of the state. But after last night I've got a blue U.S. representative, a new blue Senator (bye bye Libby Dole) a blue Governor and a brand new blue President of the United States. After voting so many years in New York, having my vote really make a difference in my new home state made the experience of voting even more wonderful. What a privilege to take small part in such a transformational moment in our nations history. So to all my new fellow blue stater's, God bless America!!

saltydawg Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Why do you think NC is now Blue, Obtuse? Because all of you guys from red states that had taxes that were waaaaaaaay too high moved down here and are proceeding to vote into office people who will make taxes waaaaaaaay too high here. Where do you go next? Mexico? - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you go next? Mexico? Its blue because right thinking folks like me have moved down here from other BLUE STATES to spread the wisdom and enlighten the unwashed mountain folk and coastal guttersnipes. If you don't like us yankees buying our way in and transforming this state from a racist cesspool of Jessie Helms voting rednecks into a civilized state, move to the Reichstag of Texas.

obtuseangler Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 You should potty train your wife so you don't HAVE to shovel out the barn. Is your wife or as you call her "sis" potty trained? I guess that is a high standard for you.

saltydawg Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 No matter how many Cadillacs you buy from NC dealerships or how many pairs of black socks and plaid shorts you purchase, just know that you will always be a guest here. You worked your life out in the northeast where you belong and are now bringing your capital down to us to donate to the state in the twilight of your life. We thank you for that...but you will always be a guest. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Williams Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 don't carpetbaggers just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? No wonder the south is still pissed off about losing the war. I didn't really understand it until I moved to New England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
