Nothing quite like hearsay, eh counselor? You'll have to do better. My bet is that Simon used weasel words but made no promises and that the Log Cabins present took it and tried to paine him into a corner with it.
It is an admission against interest, and therefore admissible hearsay. But you are free not to connect the dots, and believe that everybody other than Simon is lying about these matters, and someone forged Simon's signature, etc. In any event, it explains why I voted for Davis. I don't have much patience with those whom I consider to be dishonest. THAT is what is a hot button issue with me. Other than that, I could care less what Simon's positions were on gay issues. I consider that about a third tier issue in California. I hope that helps.
