I have not been entirely courteous to you. I used you. I wanted to know that a hard core "conservative" thought about gays, and unions, to then point out, that half of GOP folks in California favor the same. You were "on the dock" as my exhibit, and handled it very well. Kudos. Not guilty!
Here's some info from your same Field Poll. Note that in passing Prop 22 in 2000, 61% of voters opposed same sex marriage, yet Field would probably have been reporting somewhere in the low 50s in the same year. Not much has changed since 2003. Their polls are definitely slanted in favor of the liberal agenda.
