But Kerry doesn't really mean it.

That's clear to you, but I doubt that the average moderate vote will care enough to learn all the facts about Kerry and gay marriage.

Eight months from now, I doubt how many voters will remember the gay marriage law in Massachussetts.

Of course, the Left can screw this issue very badly in the interim. It's conceivable that gay-enablers will get more obnoxious about this issue, by celebrating mass gay weddings in the Deep South or pulling some other crazy stunt.

What was once an 'extreme' position has been 'mainstreamed' by a media that keeps pushing moral degeneration, social experimentation, alternative lifestyles, etc. I do NOT think gay marriage is a small issue for a lot of voters. It's the canary in the coal mine of our culture.

People who talk about it 'not a big deal' are invariably the people who are blase about cultural problems generally. But many many voters care about moral standards in society and dont like the trend.

Kerry was on the wrong side of DOMA vote in 1995. He's for civil unions, which is as 'pro-gay' as civil unions gov Dean was. It's a clear choice IMHO if Bush makes it clear his position. Hopefully, he will adopt the Mitt Romney position and challenge Kerry to join him - or distinguish. Then voters will have some facts about Kerry and gay marriage.

JMHO.
