Jeff Blackwood is going to run out of states to which to relocate.

In NC, our hateful, Yankee-filled GOP is busy regulating bathroom usage, passing unconstitutional laws discriminating against classes of people, overturning local rule, killing the poor through cutting a range of benefits, privatizing our schools, and driving the world's best higher education system into the ground with Bush and ALEC appointees. We're giving Kansas a run for their money.
