What are they thinking??

Jay Carney just announced support of gay marriage has just been entered as part of the Dem's party platform.
 
The democrats really believe that same sex marriage is supported by a majority of Americans. They believe that just because it's been defeated by vote in every state that put it on the ballot, it still doesn't mean that Americans reject it. Times have changed and if it came up for a vote today, every state would have legalized same sex marriage.

In reality, this is a major loser for democrats. No one who was going to vote for Romney will switch to obama because the democrats now support same sex marriage. It might cost obama the black vote though. And it will simply galvanize donors to donate yet more to Romney. Gays were upset about Christian money supporting Prop 8???? Well, they ain't seen nuthin yet.

Not really. The GOP has taken a hard right, woman hating, gay hating, bigoted/jesus stance on the issue to rally the extremist right loons. Those on the left would no way in hell support the GOP in a million years, that's why they are going for it.

Gay marriage is becoming more and more accepted by the day, and is extremely important to two key demographics that are the most upset at Obama, the youth vote and the liberals. Running on a pro-gay marriage position would rally those voters significantly.

I don't believe this will help them at all...
It's not going to change the minds of the smart people out there that really look into all the issues, and they know what Obama has done to us. Just because he's pro-gay marriage does not mean he's going to do a better job the next 4 years than he's done already. Most people are smarter than that....

He's going to have do something REALLY big that will help fix the economy and help bring more good paying jobs here. That is what people want.....and that is what people know he's a failure at.
 
Whether it will hurt Obama or help him, the fact of the matter is, he is doing the right thing in supporting equal rights for all and keeping discrimination out of the Constitution. In time, this will be the accepted norm anyway. Frankly, I could care less if gay people got married. Let them enjoy or not enjoy it the same as everyone else.

Many people vote simply for social issues. Running on gay marriage isn't going to shove democratic voters away, it will rally the youth and liberal vote.
 
Support of Judeo-Christian tradition around marriage is the new Hate.

Um, OK Dems
 
Democrats already had the youth and liberal vote. They had the black vote too, but now that's in the balance. What the democrats might do is take the whole issue of Romney being a Mormon off the table as a point of contention.
 
The dems platform is the same every election, five words for u:

Giving it all away baby!!!!!!!!!!


or sometimes they change it up


"Come and get some baby"!!!!!!!!!!

Only because that's what polling shows.

Majority of Americans support legalizing same-sex marriage, poll shows - ABC News

Those are the polls democrats choose to believe. Aside from the fact that this is ABC and known not to tell the exact truth when it suits them.

Does a majority of Americans really support gay marriage? Maybe not. - The Washington Post

I certainly hope that democrats pick up this ball and run with it.

No they didn't. The youth and liberal vote has been the strongest displeased with Obama and are the demographics where he was hurting the most.

Also Obama should make the mormon issue front and center. Many, if not the majority of americans think the Mormons are a nutty cult.

What they're thinking is, "OMG, all the fringe groups who are usually securely in the tank for us are realizing the boy king has no clothes! Quick, we must wast ridiculous amounts of time and resources sustaining our base! Let the gays marry, allow the illegals to invade unabated and let women know we've got their backside!"

At a time when a good leader would simply stand there and say, "It's been rough, but look how far we've come" this administration is forced to convince the intellectually weak that "things could be worse".

Bravo :clap2:
