Is this thing really going to pass?
California propositions county-by-county map, margin of victory - Los Angeles Times
As I write this, it's 53.2% - 46.8% yes.
I understand the majority of counties counted first were Conservative though.
This may force Obama to pass a federal law allowing gay marriage.... will be interesting. Not his highest priority, but certainly we should allow equal rights for ALL Americans.

I know Arkansas passed a ban on Gay Adoption.

Which is precisely what he should NOT do. It is not the job of the President to decide state issues. It's bad enough Roe v. Wade will be allowed to stand.
It is very likely to pass, and it wouldn't be the first time. The big difference between then and now: this Prop rewrites the state constitution. Considering the high number of Hispanic voters in California, it doesn't surprise me. Remember, they are mostly traditional Catholics.
You may want to check that. Last time I looked, O was opposed to gay marriage.
Wrong. Arkansas passed a ban on allowing a person who is living with an unwed partner to adopt. It is not limited to gays, and the fact it is being portrayed as such shows the liberal media bias.

That depends on your interpretation of states rights. Should a minority of people be given less freedom because a majority thinks it's immoral? Abortion is one thing, but gay marriage? Who does that hurt? It's such a silly argument. You don't like gay marriage? Ok, fine. Don't be gay and don't get married!
I wondered how this issue was doing in CA... This is kind of an 'old school' holdover of the conservative movement.
It will be interesting to see if the republicans will be willing to trade tolerance regarding alternative lifestyles for the power that comes from moderate voters in the coming years.

And I'm unsure if Obama is truly against Gay Marriage or just against it because he knows supporting it outright would be a death bell to any campaign.

Oh bullshit. That is the law but it was passed so Gays would be unable to adopt.
No Gay Marriage in Arkansas so Gays would be automatically barred from adopting.
We both know this J. Stop bullshitting me. Your smarter then that.
Therein lies YOUR problem. I have no problem with gay marriage. Marriage is a contract between two people. Nothing else. Straight couples have made a mockery of marriage on their own. I don't see how gay couples could tarnish its name anymore than it already is.
But it is not the job of the President, the Supreme Court, nor Congress to decide what states can and cannot issue such contracts.
Yes, its purpose is to prevent gays from adopting, but it also prevents unmarried straight couples from adopting. It's not a ban on gay adoption. Period.
