If Slow Joe jumps into the race, Hillary will have to come out of the closet in order to keep her worker bees.

There are few politicians who've been more outspoken on LGBT rights in a gut-level, passionate way than Vice President Joe Biden. Nor has there been any politician so public in his or her opinions and so close to a president who catapulted LGBT rights during his two terms, profoundly making history. Political strategists still debate whether Biden forced President Obama to move more quickly on marriage equality -- something Biden surely would like us to believe -- or if he was part of a trial balloon days before the president finally announced support in the spring of 2012 (most reports point to the former). But the bottom line is Biden was first, ahead of Obama and Hillary Clinton -- who was last out of the gate among the three.
And that may present a problem for Clinton -- who some recent reports suggest has wide support among LGBT voters -- if Biden jumps in the race, in the same way we saw support from LGBT activists begin to cleave between Clinton and Obama during the 2008 primaries. The LGBT electorate is not a big one. But it is a politically active, organized and influential one, raising a lot of money for candidates and, like other minority groups focused on attaining rights, providing worker bees during campaigns who galvanize and energize the larger electorate -- and in the case of LGBT organizers, that's had a big impact on energizing younger voters too.

Of course. zobies wander from 1 target to the next!
That would be “Zombies”.
That would apply to both candidates.
yup.
The gays love Hillary. It’s not logical. They know.
Elizabeth Warren with her sensible hair and glasses may remind them of their gender studies professors or that single assistant principal who kept a picture of her cat on her desk next to a candy jar
So yeah, they’ll switch teams
So to speak
Oh yeah. The highly sought after hemorrhoid voters.
They will take their orders as part of the Glorious Cause of World Socialism.
Why would they? Biden is not gay!
Are you kidding me..Why would the queers drop one of their own (Hillary Clinton)and go for a Moron like BIDEN..Obama was their perfect choice since he loves his fellow queers now they are stuck with two more morons instead of one racist queer..
Who cares? There are not enough of them to worry about. Ignore them!
...maybe that’s what shillary should run on “Gay lives matter”....LMAO
Hillary may have lost a few percentage points of support in the polls, but I think her base, including feminists, gays, wronged women, college “educated” women of both parties, social issue feel-goods, socialists, etc. are passionately in her corner. They turn a blank mind to published facts about her.
As in 2008, her fortunes will head south if the super delegates choose to deny her the nomination. In 2008, also, the first indication of her non-inevitability came with the early money from Hollywood (Geffen).
Her demise will come from behind the scenes, not in a drastic drop in loyalty from her faithful.
Huffington Post, hahahaha! Always stuck on gays. What difference does it make! That group is the minority of minorities.
