we are divided in my work place. stoutly conservatives and fiercely loyal progressives. so we all agreed to disagree and not to talk politics in the office. so those who think alike meet for lunch and have a good time and no more tension. i am one of the loyal progressives who just can't seem to understand why women vote republican. i can't wrap my brain around it. i can also attest to the support of Obama by many who are quiet democrats who love my "Obama birth certificate" coffee cup.
