Thankfully, it rarely does in mine.  I'm friends with normal people, you see.  My two best friends have political views that I frankly consider ridiculous.

In 1960 about 5% of Americans said they would be upset if their child married someone of the opposite political party.

In 2010 that percentage was 40%.

In 1960, the two major parties were big tents comprising both conservatives and liberals.

Nowadays, they have clear ideological leanings.

While technically true, this grows more exaggerated every year.
