Vermont and California are libertarian states? That's a good laugh.

The only thing libertarian about Vermont is it's gun laws, which I admit are very good.

Social libertarian and social liberal aren't really the same thing (gun control, states' rights, tobacco, affirmative action, anti-discrimination laws), though they certainly see eye to eye on some issues.

California probably has the worst tax burden in the country, and still has a budget crisis.

Democrats control both chambers of the state legislature. I could be wrong, but I don't think any states let the governor just cut taxes at random.

I'm surprised Vermont hasn't changed its gun laws yet.
