I want to win the election. If we have to "talk around" a few issues to get there, then so be it.
Republicans are good at saying what moderate voters want to hear during an election and then doing whatever they originally planned to do after they are elected.
Our side needs to learn to pick our battles and win elections. Our battle right now, in the next 30 days, is not defending the 1960's or even defending gay marriage (sorry!) in the media. Our battle right now is to win the election and that is all. Once we win the election, then we have a lot more power to defend gay marriage or anything other issue you want to name.
If we lose this election, then all of the "truth to power" talk in the world is worth nothing because Republicans will appoint the next two or three Supreme Court justices.
That's the way I see it. Fire away! :)
