I'm in a small cubicle and came under management pressure to take down my small "war is not the answer" sticker a few years ago and did so. I need my job. I don't talk politics in the office. I also can't understand how women can vote Republican although most women I work with are totally Democratic. I also get support from the "quiet" progressives who comment on my Obama peace sign logo coffee cup!
