You remind me of a rather painful dinner I once had. I worked for a company that had a headquarters in New York at one point. I went there on a business trip and dinner with my colleagues. One of my colleagues went out of her way to ensure I knew she was a liberal Democrat and that was part of where she came from and part of her "heritage".
I quietly endured this tirade. After she was done, I said, gently, "It's clear that given the last election, that apparently the opposite tradition is a touch more widespread."
It will likely come as no surprise that I left the company 6 months later. :)
Regards, Ivan
Not this former NYer....
I'll take the stand with my southern conservative brethren.
Screw those pompous NY elitists...they have botched up NY so bad....it's like a foreign city to me. Wish a lot of my family would get out of there...most of them are conservatives too.
