If only all political conversations could stay as civil and friendly as this one is so far . . .
On the quote above, I could not disagree more. We are not "in casual conversation"--face to face--here.
Our vote in the poll above is
anonymous--no fear of p****ng off a neighbor or acquaintance we'd like to keep. There's no reason to cover up in the poll and I think it's accurate.
Most Independents I know dislike both parties (whose tactics are the same), and they are willing to listen and learn from
respectful voices from either side.
