To begin with, this election was, generally speaking, a rejection of the notion being advanced by many in the establishment wing of the Party that the Republicans needs to move to the Left on social issues like abortion and gay “marriage.” Earlier this year, GOP establishment leaders like Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan announced their plan to begin trying to recruit “Young Gun” candidates – socially liberal, and often homosexual, candidates to run under the Republican banner in an effort to “broaden the appeal” of the Party, especially to younger, socially liberal voters. John Boehner backed this effort, throwing money at the candidates who had been recruited to run this year. However, the voters who were supposed to be impressed by the GOP’s lurch to the Left on “individual choice” issues instead reacted with a collective yawn. In the race for the open seat in Massachusetts’ 6th congressional district, “Young Gun” Richard Tisei - a gay Republican who has a 100% rating from NARAL and Planned Parenthood, who (obviously) supports gay “marriage,” and who is “married” to his “partner” - lost by 15 points to a non-incumbent and relatively unknown Democrat. To give this some perspective, Tisei had ran for the same seat in 2012 against a well-known and long-time incumbent and lost by only a single point.

I cannot believe I missed this thread. Somehow I overlooked my ping.
*settling down for some good reading*

Fingers miraculously broken upon being asked.
I didn’t know that you weren’t on my ZOT LIGHTNING Ping List, my friend. It’s a big list, 99 FReepers, counting you.
I have added you. Please do let me know if you want off.
Yes. He fled. He can’t answer the question honestly so he fled.
I detest weakness in ones convictions.
But since he did demonstrate a willingness to cheerlead for a homosexual troll, called those of us who oppose the homo agenda “morons”, “perverts”, and “cyber stalkers” we can infer what he does believe.
He’ll slip up.
Thank you, TOL! I can’t imagine ever wanting off, LOL.
Hi-Tech, no offense intended, but sometimes your posts give the impression that you think you're FR's religious authority. You're always telling someone else why they're falling short as a Christian, and you're ready to instruct them on shaping up.
I know you mean well, but it comes off as arrogant.
TOL is one of the least "stiff and proud" individuals on this site. Get off her back.
You’re welcome, dear friend.
I should do research on that. I’m not for homosexual marriage. What I want is people to be free...and Obama is making us LESS FREE.
OK...
That’s a good idea. You need information.
