On a semi-related note, what is going on out on the campaign trail?
It was inevitable that a Democratic candidate would eventually embrace same-sex marriage, but I was a bit surprised Obama would embrace a potentially toxic issue so openly, given how close the election is.
But I was really surprised by the Republican response. I would have thought this was the kind of cultural issue that they would pounce on, but Romney and the leadership are trying to stay as far away as they can from it.
