I’m a conservative who has lived in Rockville for over 25 years. When I first voted in the area and discovered that you had to publicly identify your party affiliation, I switched my registration to Independent, because I didn’t think it was anyone’s business who I was voting for and because I realized a Republican affiliation was liable to create unnecessary tension with the neighbors.
Later, when my eldest was attending TPMS (in the McCain/Romney era), I was volunteering at the school and the other moms started chatting about politics. They were clearly liberals and I just smiled and held my tongue, feeling it was neither the time nor place to get into a political debate.

Blah blah blah TL;DR
You’re not as clever as you think you are, hon. The other moms spotted you the second you kept your mouth shut. They pegged you immediately as a GOP’r. They did ostracize you, you were just too dumb to notice it. We do the exact same thing to people like you in our PTSA. You can always spot these idiots, they’re the ones not jumping in the conversation or trying to change the subject to something else. We know your type. You’re not fooling anyone and we all talk about you the second you’re not around.
