The talking head pollsters are right about one thing...on another(non political) board someone posted links to a couple of these "find your candidate" sites. I was floored when the responses started flowing in. People would take the "quiz" and then post their result - a good 50% would list the candidate it matched them with along with "who in the heck is that?" - this was commonly Tancredo or Hunter with a few Ron Paul tossed in...the next line in the post was something like "I don't agree with that site at all - I'm voting for(insert Hillary/Obama/Edwards here)!"

So, basically, these morons are voting for people they clearly aren't aligned with on the issues...I know I shouldn't be surprised, but that really makes my head hurt.

Umm, thanks for the census link; I don’t know what it is for. The Log Cabins aren’t broken out in there; but I appreciate it.

Applying for Log Cabin endorsement is a major issue with me and with others that understand who they are. I’m glad it doesn’t bother you. But I and others want no part of an organization that has money funneled by David Mixner who was an organizer of the Vietnam antiwar marches, who also set up the democratic Victory Funds, who was Bill Clinton’s gay political advisor, and who funds the Point Foundation, a scholarship program to turn “gay” kids into homosexual activists.

You go ahead and support that though. Cause, when you apply for Log Cabin endorsement, you sign a contract with them. You will be supporting the whims of LCR, not the candidate.

>>>had just voluntarily endorsed Romney

LCR has definitions for support and endorsement. They an lend support to anyone. But an endorsement has to be applied for and contains an entirely different process.

I have threads here on it if you want to know more, I will ping you to them.

I also have threads on David Mixner. I can ping you to those too.

Let me know.
