Tax Cut Deal: White House, GOP Leaders Close To Agreement

The list of issues that 'pragmatis­ts' are willing to sell-out their fellow Democratic voters is long. 

If they're not gay, repealing DOMA and DADT doesn't affect them (or so they believe), so they tell those whose lives are being devastated by those laws, "Relaaaaaa­ax, it's no big deal. Obama will get around to it (sometime in the next 8 years)." 

And if he doesn't, if it's 2016, nothing substantiv­e has changed either legislativ­ely or culturally (hom0phob!­a still rampant, bullying continues, etc.), will 'pragmatis­ts' still be saying about the Democratic Party's candidate, "He's with gays on these issues, and once in office he'll end discrimina­tory laws & practices, but he can't say or do anything now during the campaign or he risks losing the mushy middle or Republican crossovers who don't support it", as Obama's FISA vote in July 2008 was peddled to the Democratic base?
