If that were true, he might get a few Republican votes.

Seriously, though, Obama may not have come out in favor of gay marriage yet, but he’s far to the left of any of the GOP’s candidates on the overall issue of gay rights.

That’s true. Can’t imagine any of them doing what Obama did with DADT. Obama does need to be better on this issue but he is better on these kind of issues than the Republican candidates who by and large try to outdo each other by seeing who can be most reactionary on gay rights issues.
