12. Indeed he was not always in favor of Gay Rights.

Remember his interview in which he said "God's not in the mix" in a gay or lesbian relationship? His administration's defense of DOMA? The lack of protest when his voice and image were used to support Prop H8?

I'm glad his thinking's evolved, but that evolution had a lot to do with the sound of LGBT purses and wallets snapping shut when he needed campaign funds for the last election.
