you could always take up oil drilling or fracking which does need mechanical engineers. But would put you in some of the Most Red States in the US.
I'm not personally too worried about being in a Red State. For one thing, even in the most red of states, 35% of the people still voted Democrat. For another, I already spent a college year in Virginia, on exchange, and while it's a borderline Red/Blue State, I found the Libertarians, Republicans and Religious Christians very interesting to talk to. They helped me expand my mind far more then I ever would have talking to fellow center left Democrats.

So I wouldn't be too afraid of living in a "Red State". However, I wouldn't be particularly fond of living in the middle of nowhere far from Amenities... I'm a city boy at heart, and industrial towns filled with Engineers tend to be low on dating opportunities...
