The Midwest is far more proud of it. Yes, it you go to Eastern Washington/Oregon or Northern California, voters are more conservative, but I've done road trips in the last couple years through all that territory and I can sit in a brewery or go to a hotel without having it all thrown in my face. In suburban Michigan the locals are proud of their bigotry in a manner I just don't encounter in blue states.

No one in Washington was overtly plotting to kidnap the governor. The Eastern counties hate Inside but they're not as maniacal.
