Could you be in a serious relationship with someone who had completely different political views as you do (or if you both differ on one major political issue that you are passionate about) ?
"Seriouso" [see-ree-oh-so] (from KATG) is a much-better word than "partner".

Republicans are always down to get theirs by any means necessary.

I think that entirely depends on whether the completely different views were in direct conflict with your own. I think its entirely possible to have a relationship with somebody who, for example, has conservative views whilst you might be a liberal, but I would question whether a relationship is possible if there is a strong moral conflict at the heart of the political differences.

My dad is basically a libertarian, and my mom is pretty left wing. They've been married 30+ years and they've made it work.

True @horp. I said "Yes" considering political views. Would find extremely difficult to live with someone who had, say, different "practices" regarding what I consider to be correct, honest, etc.

Although I must say I'm a tory christian and my wife is a liberal atheist. I guess that means she doesnt give a shit, and im uptight which is about right.

It's really hard, It definitely effects the relationship. You are adding a constant variable that automatically causes conflict.

I say 'not likely', but James Carville and Mary Matalin beg to differ.
You just know those two leave "Meet the Press" round-tables and head for the nearest closet.

If you like religious freaks who love their bibles, love their guns, hate Jews, blacks, gays, and or all minorities in general, are generally inbred from hillbillies date their cousins are daughters, then a neoconservative, right-wing, bible toting, NRA card carrying Republican or radial WASP will do you just right!
