Many people, especially liberals, define there own identities from their political beliefs.

Most moderates and conservatives vote their brain and conscience and choose not
to share their beliefs with others. This is why polls are always so wrong.

There is never anything wrong with saying "It's none of your ****** business."

I like to tell them FELONS get thier voting priviledges taken away

, and that part of my parole is that I stay away from any political activity so I wont SNAP again. Usually they stop asking questions.

I admit I did tell one annoying person last week that I was going to do a write in for someone more qualified than the choices at hand....I puffed my chest up and announced I was voting for Bullwinkle!

He was too stunned, too unsure if I was kidding or just trying to find something to say that he shut up. Maybe I should have said Garfield?

Well that is my right isn't it? To vote for whomever I wish? To write in the name of the person I feel best suited for the job?

Truthfully, I think there ought to be a "none of the above" button to choose. Should "None of the above" win, both parties have to start all over again and pick somebody new. And we try it again.

I generally suggest that when asked my political preference.

Thats why I hardly discuss politics and religion

My mother told me when I was about 12 years old and asked who she voted for that asking someone who they were voting for was like asking a woman how much she weighed. I quit asking people after that. I don't argue religion or politics. I will discuss views about them in a calm manner, but the second someone starts badgering, I'm done. I have no desire to become that riled up. Walking away or just staring at people works well. It's especially fun when you have mirrored sunglasses and they can't read your eyes when you stare.

Never afraid of a discussion, I have no qualms about politics or religion as topics. But not everyone feel the same about them. I respect that.

Some see such things as intrusions, while others simply wanna avoid confrontation.

If I'm at all interested, I simply ask, " Who do you like for - - - - ?" That gives them options.

I normally don't ask who they plan to vote for or reply with some snappy comeback. Both seem disrespectful to me.
