So sad that such a progressive state is turning into a southern-style GOP hellhole so fast.
You seriously are sounding way dumber lately. Check your inflated image of your party (a collection of liberal arts majors and poor people), and consider that you don't have to be "southern-style" or a "hellhole" to vote Republican. And, if anything, CO is returning closer to its traditional status after being abnormally attracted to Obama. It's not "such a progressive state" and many of its voters have a "stay out of my life" attitude that doesn't lend itself well to your nanny-state policies on fiscal issues and gun rights.
This is true, but I'd add that there's nothing wrong with an area being a little more "redneck-y" or "Southern." I think those are great aspects of our culture; I love the fact that those areas "cling to their guns and religion" rather than to secular humanism or liberalism, much to our President's chagrin. If the Democrats weren't so blatant in their bashing of the South, maybe they'd do better in those areas.
