Obama lost part of that 10% when he very visibly back stabbed the Catholic Church on the abortion issue. If he losses the gays to "MA" Romney, he is toast.
I think it was a desperation move that will backfire on Hussein. But the calculation involves more than just numbers of individuals in each category.
Gays are wealthier, more productive, better connected and more activist than Christian Conservative Democrats. They are very much single-issue voters and they were working up a big ol' gay hissy fit over the NC vote yesterday. Christian Conservative Democrats include many blacks who might stay on the plantation for the black President in spite of the gay.
What kind of animal is a conservative democrat anyway?
I had a conversation with a guy not too long ago who didn’t realize he’s a conservative. All of his values are conservative, but he votes Democrat. When I asked him why, he claimed to be an “old-school” Democrat.
When I asked what that was, he had no idea. Come to find out ... his family has always voted Democrat. So he does too.
Idiot. That’s what we’re dealing with out there.
