109. Depends
On whetther you think that in order to suport gay rights, the Democratic Party should throw in the towel anj just hand the keys to the White House over to Bush for the next four years. You well know that taking a pro gay marriage stance will simply place Bush in the White House again for four years. I have just been discussin this issue with a gay friend who has been a freind for 32 years, and he was stopped by the newsmedia and openly stated his opposition to gay marriage in front of the T.V. cameras in the New York City area. I didnt get it until he explained that hes stance was he'd rather let gay marriage go for a while in order to get Bush out, and risk having what rights he'd already attained reversed. I absolutely could not understand his opposition to gay marriage, but his explanation was more than enough.
