“One thing we have really found is a place to feel comfortable being ourselves,” Dean said. Americans are segregating by their politics at a rapid clip, helping fuel the greatest divide between the states in modern history.

One party controls the entire legislature in all but two states. In 28 states, the party in control has a supermajority in at least one legislative chamber — which means the majority party has so many lawmakers that they can override a governor’s veto. Not that that would be necessary in most cases, as only 10 states have governors of different parties than the one that controls the legislature

This can only end badly as conservatives seem to have no problem ruling over land in empty states.

  • Ok, well you’re free not to take your own beliefs seriously, but mine have a fairly good track record, ime, of predicting things in my lifetime. Of course, I could be wrong this time, I’m not fool enough to think otherwise. But I think this sentence of yours tells me we’re not operating on the same plane, so further discussion is likely useless: “i would consider not being strongly convicted of your own beliefs just generally…”

    Enjoy the life that approach gives you.
