It's about weather and taxes (and in the case of Texas mainly, jobs). This has been the constant in both states and the constant, consistent growth has followed.

Political movements and their associated politicians come and go. It's not about them. If it was really about political atmosphere, we'd be talking about Wyoming, Alabama, Oklahoma, Arkansas, etc.
