Oh I agree with you but other than the weather one has to ask the question as to why those other attributes do not exist in states long controlled by leftists. Well I don't actually have to ask because I know the answer. But as we will see in some of these states as they adopt some of the ruinous economic policies, the best weather in the world won't save you. Just ask the droves escaping California. It has the weather and natural beauty but is a lousy place to live economically.
Interestingly, as pointed out in the article, what really drives the ruinous policies is the urban areas. Even in states like Washington, Oregon and California the areas east of the mountain range are much more conservative than the urban areas along the coast. High taxes, regulations on building and other detrimental policies make these cities unaffordable and miserable to live in and cause the mass migration. Sadly for too many of these failed states, you can't get far enough away by moving out of the city and have to leave for friendlier and more affordable states. These are almost all, if not all, red states.
