Could you live with a partner / spouse who's political views were entirely different from yours?

The political divide in most countries these days is getting wider and it's almost as if the people too are divided. Would you be able to live with or marry a person who has political views that are way different from you?
The hatred that is reported in the media is quite significant.

Political view is not that important in our marriage although I think it's important outside of it ( marriage). It's natural for us to differ in opinion not just in politics.

@vandana7 this is very true, I'm lucky to have a partner that talks less and is more concerned with getting things done in rhe house. In general I think politics fits loud, vocal, and talkative types of personalities.

@pitstop look for me those discussion will not be a mega thing specially the politics. i had these with my friends but not with girlfriend and i will never indulge with my wife too for these,whatever she believes in politics it won't effect my love for her

I am fortunate that Hubby and I have the same views politically. But some of my friends have very different views from me . . . some of them are quite vocal about it, but I choose to stay away from that topic with them. At least then I could distance myself, but if you are married or have to live with it, I would think that's not so easy.
