For the Republicans, that would mean some place such as Indian Wells., Calif., or The Woodlands, Texas. Indian Wells is the second-most-Republican jurisdiction in California (behind Villa Park, as of last year), a place full of gated communities, beautiful golf courses, and rich old white people. The Woodlands is pretty rich and white, too, a suburb distantly in the orbit of a much more populous, diverse, and badly governed city run by Democrats.
