Obama Gay Marriage Stance Presents Early Character Test For 2012 Election

I have faith that he'll champion marriage equality in his next term.

=========================================

Putting aside for the time being your remarkable ability to presume to know what Obama intends (should he be reelected), or what I may or may not know (so if it doesn't meet with your approval, then I must be "disingenuous" and "know" that I am "disingenuous"), that's an interesting choice of words, "he'll champion marriage equality".  Not that Obama would work to repeal DOMA, etc., but that he'll say he supports marriage equality, which, for all intents and purposes, could just as easily be his current position of supporting gays in civil unions (and which also isn't equal to marriage -- Slippery with words, Obama is). 

But the point is that after the election it's too late.  

Before the election is when the deals are cut, the alliances forged.

That's why I keep telling Obama's 'most ardent supporters' that by assuring him that they're with him no matter what, they let him dismiss their issues and them.  I've really never seen a greater bunch of cowards, Obama's 'most ardent supporters', so terrified they are of getting issues on the table for knock-down, dragged out debates.  Ignorant cowards, too, or they're disingenuous about being supporters of issues like gays marrying and medical marijuana, etc., because the arguments for Democratic policies are sound and convincing.  But Obama's 'most ardent supporters' have no faith in the people's being able to see the soundness of Democratic policy.  

Like I've said for years, DLCers are the wrong people to be the stewards of the Democratic covenant.
