On gay marriage or in general? I'm going by the latter.

I'm not. I'm looking at the way people generally vote. Some counties that normally vote liberal voted yes on Prop 8. Still, the biggest Prop 8 areas are the normally conservative places that I've named, and they all are inland.
Think about Santa Barabara, Monterey, Ventura, San Diego... these all very commonly go blue.

Have you been to Cal Berkeley? The reputation it has is just as well earned today as it was 30 years ago.
Berkeley freshmen are more liberal and less religious than their national counterparts
Not only that, but I believe that California has more unions than New England. That's pretty liberal.

It's relative. If California were in Europe or were a state in Canada, we'd be conservative, but in the US? We're liberal overall.
