Are we Democrats
So while visiting for Thanksgiving, Joanie asked if we were democrats. So I told her "I usually just go with the specific politician." which really wasn't an answer but it is how I feel about politics. I definitely agree with the Democrats on education and health care. I agree with the Republicans (the party, not necessarily the administration) on some issues. I can't think of any right now as most of the Republican issues are pretty vague right now (security, lower taxes, things everyone is pretty much for). I find it really hard to tell the difference between the left and the right.
I just never feel comfortable saying I'm either republican or democrat. I mean what's the damn difference.
It was probably because I made a comment that could be considered pro-left at Thanksgiving dinner the night before. In hindsight I probably should have just bit my tongue but I really enjoy Laura's family and I was really surprised by the sweeping generalities that were being made.
It was sure interesting to hear there perspective after the election though as it was certainly something to watch in Minnesota.
