With Rick Perry (and hopefully Greg Abbott to follow) in the governor's mansion, chances are Texas will remain the conservative bastion it is despite the current shift in demographics for the near future. Plus, I think the trend will lost steam. I remember being stationed in Idaho in the mid-80s, there was a huge influx of Californians moving there and concerns they'd shift the political balance there. It apparently tapered off as the Gem State remains hardcore conservative.
Whereas I am sure Wyoming will remain staunchly pro-gun for the long term, I don't see there being much incentive for Magpul and/or Colt to move there even given the former's close proximity. Texas offers much better opportunities for both companies, and a more stable environment.
As for Obama, it doesn't surprise me. The man has an agenda, and doesn't care how much misinformation he passes as long to achieve it. It's pathetic.
