Good luck with the job search--I know that 99% of the jobs I've had in my life, I've been only about 50% qualified for when applying, but showing intelligence and a good work ethic took care of the other half. Same has been true for my sister and my daughter. Even hubby, who's trained in his field, was only partly qualified for the more specialized job he landed. All that to say, I wouldn't worry too much about being an exact fit on paper, especially these days when employers are having a hard time finding good employees.
Long ago, I made it a choice not to get into political discussions with people, online or off. I'm *not* a good off-the-cuff debater, and a lot of times my political decisions are made not based on hard facts about policies but rather gut feelings and an examination of the personal ethics and morals of the person campaigning for an office. That sort of thing doesn't usually get me very far in a debate, but it does help me sleep at night.
