‘I’m done’: Fed up with California, some conservatives look to Texas

Focuses on failed GOP Congressional candidate Paul Chabot, who ran as a “pro-life, pro-family, pro-faith conservative Republican” in California’s 31st District.

I guess it’s a values thing:

He and his wife, Brenda, moved their four children to the suburban town of McKinney, Texas, a Republican stronghold about 30 miles north of Dallas in Colin County. Dotted with new subdivisions, golf courses, artificial lakes and strip malls, the area reminds him of Orange County in the 1970s and 1980s.

“It’s like living a dream,” he said as he steered his golf cart down his cul-de-sac on a muggy afternoon recently, past large brick homes decorated with American flags and meticulously trimmed lawns.

Yes, some people actually like suburban kitsch. To me; and many others, I suspect; it would be a living hell.
