"Someone please help! I have steam coming out of my ears after a 15 min gay fest,Bush-bashing session by my coworkers."

I am already moving back down south. I just don't understand the way people think in some parts of the country. On that note however, I think that if this becomes a major wedge issue between kerry and Bush... Bush will win a significant portion of the black vote. Why were there no African-Americans at the "African Americans for Dean" rally? Why are there so few African Americans at Kerry rallies? Face it, most African Americans have never hated bush the way most democrats do.

I think you might be right.

What Bush has done, regardless of whether or not one agrees with the necessity of an amendment, is put Kerry's feet to the fire. Kerry must take a firm stand and quickly. Saying his patriotism was attacked or going for some mushy fence-sitting is not going to work. This could very well be a wedge issue. If it's still on the table in the fall, it will probably be THE wedge issue.
