Didjya know they're all friends at the end of the day?

Question

Why do supporters of democrats and republicans bite each other's heads off and turn elections into a screeching match...when, at the end of the day, the politicians you support or oppose are all friends? Think about this: McCain and Biden are good friends. McCain and Hillary are friends. Bush and Pelosi are friends. The bickering they do with one another while the cameras are rolling, or someone out there is watching how they disagree with one another is all politics.

So why do the voters seem to hate other people who don't agree with their politics?

Answer 1

I agree with the above poster

Answer 2

i'd say your naive optimism is cute, but it's a little over the top, disturbing.

Answer 3

That's true, Biden, McCain and Clinton have a lot in common.  

McCain thinks Hillary was cheated by Obama and Biden has said he would be proud to run with McCain.  Hillary has lauded McCain's record.  And, all of them have made public statements saying they don't think Obama would be a good president.

I don't hate anyone though there are a few I'm annoyed to read their stupid questions.

Answer 4

all people are naturally competitive. there are very few people who don't care if the person they agree with politically is president or not. Even if the other politician and the one that they agree with are friends. It seems like for the most part its the democrats biting at the republicans. I would guess that this is because a lot of republicans are religious and think that that kind of stuff is wrong. But republicans still can get mean too. Who knows whats going on in peoples heads.

Answer 5

...all the world's a stage...
