The Gay Marriage issue sealed the deal... [View All]

On IMUS this morning, Mike Barnicle from the Boston Globe and New York Daily News made a interesting point.

Kerry must want to strangle that federal judge from Massachusetts who introduced the whole gay marriage issue into the mix during an election year. Every state that had the ban gay marriage amendment on their ballots passed it easily. And that's pretty sad, because it shows how intolerant we have become with each other.

Folks in the red states just couldn't accept gay couples hugging and kissing on their TV sets each night. No matter how you feel about the issue, it's a big part of what turned the election.

I am still hopeful but very, very, depressed.
