Are you for real? or just your thoughts... Not that I'm going to open/discuss politics in here

, but any members should be allowed to talk about anything in the lounge including politics. No? Please clarify... while there are no right and wrong answers, discussions can get heated and petty.
so when you ask 'palin or biden', it could come out either of two ways:
thoughtful, congenial answers, or straight up red-or-blue bashing.
unfortunately, i'd say it's the latter.
i go to politico.com and post there; at least you know those folks are there for exactly those kinds of questions.
while i agree you should be able to post whatever (legit) question/comment you have in the lounge,
just judging by the initial responses you got, it's a no-win topic.
my 2 cents.

it's not that. i think the point is, politics (and religion) are very personal issues.
