Actually Palin has a gay following. Hillbuzz.org or com is run by gay men who used to love Hillary and now they love Palin. They hate Obama.
Palin as Alaska governor vetoed an act of the state legislature banning benefits to same-sex partners of Alaska state employees. Although she was personally opposed to such benefits, and stated that she would support an amendment to the Alaska constitution to that effect, she vetoed the bill on the advice of the state attorney general that the legislation was unconstitutional.
