I feel like most of the very recent pro-gay support is very soft, it must be they just changed their minds 5 minutes ago, still it’s hard to be optimistic.
Maybe we should play up the financial angle, do people really want to be giving taxpayer funded benefits to people’s gay lovers? Even if it means higher taxes for THEM? We’re broke son.
There is ZERO reason to be optimistic.
There is no one out there arguing against it, mean-while ex-Bush-admins and other GOP out of office are joining Dems on it, ‘marriage equality’.

Good luck with that. Dems will just say raising taxes on the rich will pay for it, err cutting loopholes.
Unless the GOP (or some other visible entity) makes a convincing 'fact based' sounding argument that the homo-lifestyle in itself is destructive, like the way the government did against smoking, then the libs will continue to advance on gay rights stuff.
And what I mean is not the type of arguments you hear on talk radio ("Barney Fwank brought down the world economy') . Something that holds up ina at least a light breeze.
And since that is not even being tried...
