Interesting Quote: Democratic consultant


"This was political malpractice. They fucked this up, and it was painful to watch. They shouldn't be allowed to pawn this off on the Mormons or anyone else. They snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, and now hundreds of thousands of gay couples are going to pay the price."

From an insightful article from Rolling Stone, blaming the No on Prop 8 campaign for the mess we are in now.

I'm sure there's a lot of people responsible for this happening and we know much of the funding was given by the Mormons. As a recent survey has stated, those who voted for Prop 8 were not highly educated, were in low paying positions, were religiously affiliated with the catholic church, the evangelical churches, and the Mormon church. This group was never reached by those who represented us on Prop 8. I understand most of those in charge have been fired from their positions. Perhaps, this time around things will change.
