I think it’s a lot harder than we think working in a state full of libs.
By all accounts Mitt did the best job he could.

That is a fact.
Evangelical bigotry must stop.
It is is UNChristian.
Instead of having Evangelicals look like a bunch of hate filled hypocrites, Make Mitt their prayer target.
The lies people say about Mitt are awful.
Some facts for these bigots:
AP: Mass. Senate votes to let out-of-state gays marry
By STEVE LeBLANC – July 15, 2008
BOSTON (AP) — Gay couples from across the country are one step closer to a Massachusetts wedding.
The state Senate voted Tuesday to repeal a 1913 law used to bar out-of-state gay couples from marrying in the state. The move to repeal the law, which prohibits couples from obtaining marriage licenses if they couldn’t legally wed in their home states, is driven in part by California’s recent legalization of same-sex marriage.
The House is expected to vote on the repeal later this week. Gov. Deval Patrick, D., whose 18-year-old daughter announced publicly last month that she is a lesbian, would have 10 days to sign it.
Michael Thorne, 55, and James Theberge, 50, say they’re hoping for an August wedding in Provincetown.
The Maine couple have been together for 25 years, have two children, and wanted to get married four years ago after Massachusetts became the first state to legalize gay marriages. They were BLOCKED when then -Gov. MITT ROMNEY ORDERED town clerks to ENFORCE THE LITTLE -KNOWN LAW AND DENY LICENSES TO OUT-OF-STATE GAY COUPLES.

The Massachusetts legislature is pulling out all the stops to recapture its title as the most liberal state in the union on marriage. Yesterday, the Bay State Senate voted to repeal a 95-year-old law that former Gov. MITT ROMNEY enforced to prevent out-of-state homosexuals from “marrying.”
(Thanks Mitt!!!! Lying EVANGELICALS WLL HAVE YOU BELIEVE OTHERWISE.)
To justify the move, the Senate pointed to a report commissioned by the state that claimed non-resident “marriages” would bring in an estimated $110 million. As groups like FRC have argued, money can’t undo the damage done to society by the state’s campaign to expand homosexual “marriage.”
Massachusetts liberals are hoping to throw open their borders to same-sex couples from the 24 states without marriage protection amendments. The region most likely to take advantage of the invitation is nearby New York, whose governor, David Paterson (D), made the unilateral decision to recognize out-of-state “marriages” without putting the idea to a democratic test.
Marc Solomon of MassEquality brushed off criticism of the Senate vote, saying, “We think this issue has lost some of its edge. It’s just not a big deal. Americans look at this and they wonder why these groups are constantly talking about gay marriage when gas prices and the war in Iraq are so much more critical.”
(They’re trying to distract you from this issue. It IS a PRIORITY to them.)
On the contrary, the issue is enough of a “big deal” that Massachusetts senators held a cowardly voice vote on the repeal to ensure that senators votes would be anonymous, and state voters would be unable to hold them accountable. As to this notion that same-sex “marriage” is growing more popular, it’s simply not true. In a July Pew Research Center poll, only 15 percent of Americans surveyed “strongly favored” legislation that would “allow gays and lesbians to marry legally.” More than double that (31 percent) “strongly opposed” the idea.
The bill to overturn the 1913 law now heads to the House, where it is expected to pass before heading to Gov. Deval Patrick’s (D) desk.
