是的，我嫁给了一个共和党人

I Married a Republican：There, I Said It

无论他的政治主张是什么，都已经太迟了：他既有奇思妙想又沉稳可靠，他既能把坏了的门修好，又热衷旅行，这一切让我深陷爱河。只是每当我对自己说“我爱上了个共和党人”时，我就觉得怪怪的，好像我背叛了某个人，或者一群人似的。

It was happening again. I was at a cocktail party where the hosts were people I had just met, people I wanted to become friends with, and was sipping chardonnayand nibbling papadum chips when a woman said, ＂Oh, the people next door! They＇re…,＂ she paused and lowered her voice,＂ ... Republican.＂ Everyone grimaced. I stood there nodding, my dirty secret lodged in my throat like a golf ball.
