right attitude in my opinion.
Although politics and policy are a big deal to me, I refuse to let it drive anger and hatred in myself. While I may look on Republican voters with a slight bit of disappointment, it's not what I see printed on their forehead when I see them. I see people, just like me, who were at least dedicated enough to leave their house and vote on election day. Politics means nothing to me in everyday life, and I hope for the same from others. Very rarely am I disappointed in real life.
The world only gets worse if we view one another as less than human, and I refuse to contribute to the demise of civility.
