Please, please, please... if anybody from the Rick Santorum or Newt Gingrich campaign staff is reading this, **PLEASE** have your candidates make this a point in one of the upcoming debates to remind voters of what Mitt Romney has done in the not-so-distant past.

Interesting point.

Anyone know if there's a reason he waited?

Rep. Barney Frank has been open-and-out for so many years that I would think his constituents would view getting married as “settling down” rather than something upsetting.

But maybe even in the Cape Cod area this would still have been a political problem. Sometimes I am surprised how there's still a core root of morality in far-left liberal areas that “snaps back” when people have finally had all they can stomach.

Did anyone pick Barney in the Howie Carr Death Pool? Sounds like Barney is checking off his Bucket List.
