now that Frist has come out for it, Anti-Guv is probably right that the Democrats will have to openly oppose it to stop it in the Senate. If they do, then it becomes an issue in 2004

That would be political suicide. A lot of Dems will brank ranks if their leadership comes out against marriage.

There's a reason why Bill Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act. He was a scumbag, but no dummy. If the Dems make this an issue in 2004, they will be crushed.

100% correct. I wondered why Frist took such an out of character strong stand, there is an upside to this!

Bring it on Democrates, I want fight about Judges on this. The hand writing is on the wall, this isn't a defining moment for liberalism, this is the beginning of the end of Judicial Activism.
