I agree, it's a much more interesting question. People dating would not have had any influence on each other's formative years, worldview-wise. My Mom and stepdad whose house I was raised in are hard-core leftists, and I agree w/ them on practically nothing. My younger sister shares my independence of thought, but my brother and older sister are fairly close to the parents' views, which are basically that all poverty is someone else's fault, government should do everything for everyone including ass-wiping, etc....
I am an absolute Republican compared to them, and an absolute pinko compared to the kool-aid drinking Bush supporters around here. The current administration gives the GOP the worst name ever, makes Nixon look like their Kennedy and Agnew was a pisher and a popcorn pimp compared to Cheney.
