Meetup.com is a great website for finding people of similar interests. Especially if you are new to town, recently divorced (i.e. now single & need to meet people), or realized that you really need to get out and meet new people and get out of this rut you are in (i.e. that routine of yours).
Anyhoo, in browsing it for new ones, I see there’s a Coffee Party meetup, a politician’s meet-up (similar to Friending a campaigner on Facebook, I suppose), and a Tea-partyish, ultra-patriotic group.
So not only can you join these groups, that actually meet IN PERSON (not just virtually), to spout your political views, you could also monitor them for local activity.
In other words, just because you join their meet-up group, doesn’t mean you meet eye-to-eye with their thoughts, but want to keep up on them.
