OK, let me just say that I am a Liberal Democrat. I proudly wear the title of Liberal Democrat. I live in, and greatly enjoy The Villages. Not once have I felt "less than welcome." I don't choose a place to live based on the political, moral, intellectual, or any other thoughts of my neighbors. I may not always agree with all of my friends in The Villages, but I still enjoy them and they enjoy me. My neighbors don't judge me, and I don't judge them. Frankly, we don't discuss it much at all.
I've been to Sarasota (and Gainesville for that matter), and it's great. But do you really think that only "Progressives" live in Sarasota? I find plenty of tolerance here.
Why I did choose The Villages? The lifestyle amenities, the weather, and this great house I live in.
Just saying.............................
