8. TX perhaps (but not all that soon). FL is harder to turn as RWers are pouring in, in far greater numbers than non RWers.

Many non RWers are leaving FL as well, and in greater numbers than RWers are leaving.

Also the Latino population (as I have been talking about here on DU for ages) overall in the US has the fastest growing (in terms of raw numbers) religious group in America: evangelical Latinos, who trend far more RW than traditional Catholic Latinos do.

The US, since at least 5, 6, or so years ago, is the first nation (in terms of nations with a substantial amount of Latinos) in history to have a majority of Latinos who are NON Catholics, and every year the percentage of those non Catholics who are evangelicals surges upwards.

I have posted so many times on this, often in a lot of detail.
