Another thing, voting for John McCain doesn't automatically make some a villain liberal vs. conservative is not good vs. evil. It's liberal vs. conservative. You can be an educated, well-meaning person and still think McCain would be a better president than Obama. It happens. Someone's political views should not have anything to do with how inherently "good" or "cool" they are.
I wasn't going to disown Brian for liking McCain or anything. Seems like politics would be the last thing on Brian's mind. I wouldn't be surprised if Brian just went into the voting booth and randomly picked a candidate, or even wrote in Phil Spector. I think Brian would have a much stronger opinion on the steak vs. hamburger race. Seems like the only BBs who were overtly political were Mike (pro-environment Republican) and occasionally Dennis (anti-war.....booze not bombs!!
).
I think I mentioned this in the old thread but Dennis dated Regan's daughter Patti. In her book she writes about the time that she wanted to get an abortian. It was not Dennis' baby but he found out and called her up in tears telling her it would be a horrible mistake. I thought that was interesting as you really can't tell what people feel about issues by their public image.
