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.
