out of the chum bucket, dchill! I get it. Right-wing republicans, and even "moderate" Democrats are going to come at Pete with this stuff non-stop. He's been doing very well with their snide LBGTQ remarks and questions so far. I just wish they'd leave sex out of it altogether. You don't see the other candidates getting grilled over their sexual preferences.
