those who vote different then you?

The thing to remember about those who vote differently than you is that often that vote represents a profound difference of belief about important issues - e.g., a gay son whose mother votes against a law giving gays equal rights, or protecting them from discrimination. This is not just about a "vote" - it's about whether or not the family members value and respect the same ideals and ways of life.

or it could be fiscal issues, foreign afffairs, crime, campaign finance reform, funding for certain programs, etc. - people vote the way they do for all sorts of reasons. and using that as some sort of character judgment is, quite frankly, very close-minded. few, if any of us, agree with the candidates we vote for on every issue.
