How many of you have had a heated argument with a family member over elections?

Don't bother telling me conservative or liberal, Kerry or Bush, right or left.

I'm not interested.

Just curious how many of you have gotten into a heated debate with a family member over this election, or political views in general... I had to cut off contact with my Grandma until after election- because I was discussing issues with her and she retorted- we'll im awful sorry young people can vote if they all believe that... so I responded Young people are defending our country, not sitting on their asses like you believing everything they read in TIME magazine .



Seriously though I've had problems with her in the past- shes not the nicest person, shes kind of lazy, she makes no effort to connect with her grandchildren, me atleast, being the only male ...


But honestly everything was okay - no yelling just a dicussion of what happened in the debates and I said " Well i think people that are for Bush see it as a a Bush win and people for Kerry see it for a kerry win and people undecided saw the Cardnials kick ass" then we went to talk about who we were going to vote for, and why- and then it just came out of the blue and I was like WTF ?? Civil conversation goes to hell in a handbasket - and I didnt insult her canidate or anything.... I didn't smear or say half truthes,



Anyway just curious how many of us poltically err involved people this occured too?
