>> Apparently, you're unaware of demographic trends and where Americans actually live, which is in cities. The dumbass southern rednecks aren't going to "take America back". Hell, even the mayor of Houston, Texas got gay married in Hawaii! The voters KNEW she was gay when they elected her.

I think you're underestimating the activity on this topic. In fact, there are Utah legislators pushing the concept, at least four from my state were present at the initial organizing meeting a few weeks ago, and there are only a few blue states needed. Before this is over, the blue states will have the chance to participate or not, or to have to say at all in what happens. I suspect most will decide they want to be involved.

The biggest problem right now is fighting ignorance which is manifested as fear over a "runaway" convention, which is unwarranted fear.

As to Houston's mayor, last I heard Houston proper was fairly liberal. I don't believe that is a radical change.
