It's really interesting on two levels - will your political beliefs "turn off" your colleagues? and perhaps more importantly - will your political beliefs "turn off" your potential clients? It's a tough issue. At the office, we talk politics a great deal. It can get heated. Post 9/11 was particularly dicey. But I have to be more careful outside of the office. I work in a conservative field with conservative clients. I am, er, not so conservative. Offending clients, or potential clients, is a risk. I have to watch my blog, my letters to the editor, etc. I'd love to hear how others deal with this! This is a fabulous question!
