Before we moved to AZ we were stationed at Ft. Drum and you are right - different folks up in northern NY. Hillary would visit occasionally and she didn't dare leave the Watertown airport for her rallies that generally brought about 30 people out. As we were PCSing last fall she came up for one such rally and made the statement that she'd "saved" Ft. Drum from the BRAC list. Ummm - yeah, it was soooo on the chopping block.

You've got to drive at least 30 minutes north of the Golden Gate to leave the Twilight Zone. My grandma lives well within Crazy-Lib town limits nowadays unfortunately, but the community she currently lives in is filled with the Greatest Generation - so it's a safe haven.
