If you have an opinion on her being gay, why don't you just come out and say it instead of tap dancing around it?

I don't have an opinion on her being Gay, I just don't think it should be used as a resume enhancer or the reason anyone votes for her.

You guys trumpet that stuff like it's some kind of achievement.

It's not.

I am not tap dancing Amy, I am not gay ..... having said that I do respect peoples sexual inclinations, I have relatives who are gay why should I have a beef with it?

I don't think anyone should vote for anyone else based on their sexual preference, although I'm sure some did, and I'm sure some voted for the other guy because she was gay.

People vote for representives for lots of reasons, plently of which I think are silly. *shrug*
