One week left to try to defeat this (again)! I'm not liking that I'm hearing that GOPers are being wishy-washy on this from the Post. If it were the Times, I'd ignore it as propaganda, but the Post usually seems to be on the Conservative side of things.

Influences contributing to the changes of heart are secret Republican polls showing majority support for gay marriage

This is the reason for the slanted polls. Influence. If they REALLY wanted to do the will of the people it would be on a ballot.

... and the strong possibility that the GOP could lose control of the Senate next year to Democrats campaigning on the issue ...

So voting yes on a liberal issue is a sure-fire way to win over the conservatives who helped put you into office ...

They’ve been bought off, which is par for the course for Yankees.

It won't last long anyway.
Once the country has rotten sufficiently from within, radical Islam will gain a foothold and then take over.

And then ...

When will these fools learn that they can’t give a person the right to marry to his boyfriend her to her girlfriend..They are trying to play God all of them and one day all will be very sorry..

My Senator, Roy McDonald is one of the pubbies caving. Quite a disappointment as he voted it down in 2009.

Just sent him a terse email.

Anyone feel free to email him, even if not in NY, tell him you’ll send $ to replace him next election.

New York State Senator James Alesi just announced that he would be the first Republican to back the gay marriage bill. Two more Republicans are needed for the legislation to pass.

It could go either way, and I urge pro-family NYers to write a letter to the editor, and contact their state senators to let them know that this won’t stop at gay “marriage.”

For instance:

Same-sex “marriage” laws lead to religious discrimination:

“Boston’s Catholic Charities to stop adoption service over same-sex law”

But it’s not only MA:

“Same-sex ‘marriage’ law forces D.C. Catholic Charities to close adoption program”

http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/same-sex_marriage_law_forces_d.c._catholic_charities_to_close_adoption_program/

“Illinois Catholic Charities vows to resist same-sex adoptions”
