I think the trick is for us single guys to look for a woman (kids or not, widowed, divorced and vice versa) with her “head on straight” for lack of a better term, not some ditz for OBummer. I can understand being a bit gun shy because of what happened to my best friend though. For the record, if a potential date was an Obama-ite, I’d have to take a pass.
I’d have never dated a liberal or a Democrat, either. That’d be a deal killer for me, too.
