I believe that when gay marriage became legal in Massachusetts, Mitt Romney was the governor there.

If persecuting people of a different sexual orientation is really that important to the right-wing base, Romney may be too much for them to swallow. When the guy was governor, his state approved gay marriage, and implemented a health-care system that looks a lot like Obama’s Affordable Care Act.

But I could be wrong. The right-wing base may still support Romney, if they think he can win, simply because they hate Obama so much.

I’m afraid that Romney may have a decent chance to be next President. The economy isn’t going to get much better by November 2012.
