The problem is, will social conservative purists (a redundancy, I'm sure) accept gays into the tent?No, they won't.
As one door is opened for the queers, the "conservative purists", and conservative Christians will be looking for the exit.
To those comparing Newt Gingrich's divorce with homosexuality: this a canard.
Normal folks, i.e. straights, do make errors in their moral judgement at times.
The difference is that the straights can recognize their mistakes, know they did wrong, yet atone for them and change.
I doubt many of these so-called Republican queers will be renouncing their sexual deviancy anytime soon.
And how far are you folks who welcome the queer money & votes willing to go in adapting the GOP platform to accomodate these people?

The Bible makes no such distinction on which is worse: adultery or homosexuality. And I know many heterosexuals who have never changed or denounced their sexual deviance

the same degree of accomodation to gays as it does
to the libertarian voters the party wants, that is, zero.

I know several practicing homosexuals that were Republican while they were practicing and are even more so now that they've been delivered from the (self) deception. Homosexuality is a particularly insidious sin.
The spiritual consequences of all adultery, forication, etc. are steep, and same flesh desires rank as mind-twisting.
