We parted friends with a full agreement that Liberals and Conservatives cannot communicate because they each have a different thought process.
I hope there are not too many marriages spoiled by this situation. We were lucky.

Cashman I think you hit the proverbial nail squarely on the head!!!
I also feel that many people had, or should I say formed, an opinion many years ago and there is absolutely nothing you can say that would change their mind.
I also feel the academic types are the worse, as they spend their work and free time with people of similar beliefs as their own.
