Do Not Discuss!

He likes her and she likes him. I'm not talking about Boy Meets Girl.

Or.

He likes him and she likes her. No, not about homosexuals either.

So, what am I talking about?

I'm talking about spouses who can't discuss the upcoming election because it evokes too much passion and sometimes erupts into nastiness. That so many couples are at odds with each other over this primary speaks to the level of intensity amongst voters unlike any other time within recent political history.

After all, for the last eight years almost everyone agrees: the current administration has been a total train wreck. That's why this election is so important and why the tension, so palpable.

Not just between the nominees, but in households across America, there is a Great Divide this year.

And the candidates think they're exhausted!
