...and still find a nice girl.

Actually, some of this interview with six conservative female bloggers about dating is funny, but I also have to admit I found it somewhat disturbing that political persuasion would be such a make or break issue with these ladies. (Although, when Karol, a pal and one of my favorite bloggers, warns, "Some of the guys I have dated started out liberal, but they didn't stay that way," I have to just say all's fair in love and war.)

Not that I want any of them to have to suffer through an Obama lecture/rally with a crying and/or fainting date and, per usual, I'm probably an outlier, but, lord, if I had been determined to find someone with exactly corresponding political views to mine, not only would my courting opportunities have been basically limited to gun shows, tax day protests and a convention I attended recently where a pick-up truck with the license plate "ANTIGOV" pulled up, but I'd almost certainly be sitting home alone tonight watching Twilight Zone and The Prisoner box sets.
