when meeting them for the first time. She says it's a quick way to sort out the crazies. I agree.

It wasn't quite as good a test, because Mitt didn't always sound like an insane person.

If she's looking for someone to get in a relationship with. If I had a daughter and her boyfriend was a chump fan the night would not end well for him

My SO doesn't like Trump or Hillary. Neither does my daughter's (my youngest) boyfriend. Both of them are conservative to a degree.

I think I overheard one in the background ranting about something once. I didn't care to confirm or not, I just picked up my pace and scooted out of there.

For 2 reasons:

1) that's just cowardly politics
2) I personally know plenty of good people who respect candidates like Bernie and Trump, regardless of their positions, for NOT being a coward and worshipping the PC police, or the people basically saying something isn't even up for discussion (like socialism).

Heck, I know REPUBLICANS who are planning to vote for BERNIE because he's got guts. And I think we need guts and a willingness to push the envelope more than we need someone who says "the right things." We've tried that, it hasn't worked.
