Homestretch Election 2012

As we come into the homestretch for the 2012 election, I am feeling very good about President Barack Obama being re-elected President of the United States. I am also feeling very good about the marriage equality votes in Washington, Maine, Maryland & Wisconsin.

Main stream media wants you to believe that is going to be a photo in the Presidential election (I just don't see that happening). Romney would be the single worst President in history on social issues (even though Republicans are saber rattling, They don't even trust Romney).

President Obama still has a lot of work to do in his second presidency but given the State of the Union when he took office his accomplishments have been many. And as to social equality for the LGBT Community, President Obama has hit a home-run (work still needs to be done but with his help he has paved the way for the work to continue). Romney on the other hand would set equality for the LGBT community back to the dark ages.

I will also predict that we will see gains in the House of Representatives and possibly even the Senate.

2012 is also going to be the year for marriage equality (our time has come).

Some people will say I am looking through rose colored glasses, I am not, I am looking through glasses that so many Americans have looked through for centuries. This in my opinion is what makes America Great!
