    Me neither, but this is Import Atlanta....which places it firmly in the bible belt, which then means typically those states and areas lean heavily to the right. of course not everyone is a right-wing republican but most people are in the south, especially in rural areas. Someone like Total Blender is probably harassed at work whenever these conversations come up, or even talked down upon by his own family.

    It would be like if a christian "fundie" struck up a conversation in downtown San Francisco on Haight street, you are almost asking to be ridiculed and scoffed at. It's tough to be a "liberal" in the south. But at the same time it's fun if you can cause anger and frustration in casual conversation.

    Then again if I tried to describe my own political ideologies I would be ridiculed and laughed at by BOTH sides of the isle...so my opinion is probably null and void.

    .
    Not really, I mean most of my extended family (aunts, uncles, cousins, etc) are republicans but its not that big of a deal. We just avoid talking about politics, or we can agree to disagree. My immediate/close family (Mom, Dad, Sister, a few cousins) all have a similar political stance, so we all get along great.

    As far as work goes... I work at a university, probably 90% of my coworkers are more liberal than I am.
