As California Goes, So Goes the Nation - Eventually.

[MineralMan]

I spent 55 years of my life in California, before moving to Minnesota in 2004. I voted in many elections in California. Sometimes the Democrats I supported won and sometimes they lost. Same thing now, after 21 years, in Minnesota. Some you win. Some you lose. That's the only thing I can take from my time in both states.

I no longer vote in California, so I keep my nose out of California politics. I don't follow that anymore. Now, I focus on the state where I do vote.

So, the new turmoil in my former home state is just another mark on its history. How will it turn out? I have no idea. That will be up to California voters. My opinion is neither useful nor wanted there.

Good luck, Californians. I hope the choice you make works out for you and for the nation.
