my gut tells me that the guy is right in that a lot of gays would vote on conservative/Republican lines here if gay rights weren't part of the issue
Well, if conservatives in the US would ditch the social conservatives um... yeah, I don't see that happening anytime soon either, since the religious right has the party in a choke collar and moderates are hosed.
My husband wants to run for President on an "equal rights for all and pay down the damned deficit" platform. Good luck with that! :D
