Becoming Republican For Love
Falling in love changes a woman's political views.
Today, we are more of a couple than ever. We can actually talk intelligently about politics without throwing objects at each other. We are more in love than ever. Who would have thought that agreeing about politics could help out a marriage? It does. We get along so much better. We agree on so much more. And, we don't hold political grudges anymore.
Now this may sound like a saying from the hippie days of the 1960s, but our relationship is much more cosmic now. We are in love on a deeper level. And all because I changed my political party affiliation and came over to the dark side, or is that the right side?

It's almost like changing your religion for marriage. it sounds unlikely, but I believe if someone were to change their political views it would be because they've truly come to believe it. People are so passionate about their political beliefs so it's not something you can just pay lip service to.
When two people with different opinions and backgrounds get married, they will unavoidably become similar to each other in a lot ways - that's just what happens in marriage. You start to see things from their point of view and vice versa. People often get divorces when they can no longer deal with the differences. They have always been there, though. You have to see past your differences and learn to accept your spouse the way they are.
