    I don't eat there because of the politics. I eat there because of the food.

    Actually I think it was more of an issue of they couldn't risk their leftist hipster connections (keeping in mind that the neighborhood they're in was rated the "hippest hipster neighborhood in America" by Forbes Mag).

    Again, I don't blame them for not wanting to be a campaign stop, but I don't think I'd have refused either campaign flatly. The smarter way to go would have been to tell the campaign "You're welcome to eat here, but please no press or campaigning".

    But hey, hindsight is 20/20 and the guy's a restauranteur, not a PR/Marketing guy.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
