How important are political views in a significant other?

Had an interesting conversation with a male friend. He told me I'd be dateable to him but I'm too much of a "lefty" in his opinion.

Just made me curious. I've never considered political views when evaluating a partner. I probably gravitate to those closer in line to my own views. But then I've seen some real opposites get together.

So how important are they to you? Do you have similar views with your SO? Do you care? Are there certain "big" items you need to have in line and the rest is inconsequential?
