In reply to the discussion: I live in Alabama and I can't stand it anymore. [View all]bluestate10
(10,942 posts)63. I don't agree. There was a lot of blue in Alabama on election day. The poster needs to just find
those pockets of blue. Some of those people may well be in the poster's town or county. The poster can come to a blue state, he or she will be happy there, or stay and build out the spots of blue that were in Alabama on election day. You must understand that THIS President was portrayed as not being american, of being some dangerous radical, yet there was lots of blue for him in Alabama, that is impressive. I think the poster should stay, find like minded Alabamans and fight. Why should he or she give up a lifestyle that is comforting because of knuckleheads?
