5. Who needs arguments?
Yes, but that means the VAST majority of people in Ohio are bigots. I think its time we state that plainly. Just call them bigots and move on. I can recognize those points, but I think the key issue is that Kerry is against the FMA while Bush is for it. That's a major difference of opinion in my mind. Bush's support of civil unions was half-hearted and somewhat came across to me as pandering to all of the defected Log Cabin Republicans.

The Ohio Issue 1 passage can be a temporary setback. The passage of the FMA would be the equivalent of the "nuclear option" that Bill Frist keeps talking about.
