My nephew volunteered for Kerry’s campaign - I’d be surprised if an interviewer didn’t ask him about it, and I don’t think he could be too weasely about where he stood. I think how I would respond to a question from an interviewer would depend alot on how it came up and what my sense was of how non-judgemental he or she might be about forthwright answers. I certainly wouldn’t lie, but I might try to change the subject.

In real life I have a number of conservative friends. Sometimes we argue, sometimes we just talk about other things.
