...Like many other state legislatures last year, Iowa’s was narrowly divided. So all it would take to break the momentum toward a constitutional marriage ban was to tip a few close races. If Democrats took control of the House and Senate, however narrowly, the initiative would die, and with it the likelihood of further legislation limiting civil rights for gays and lesbians. And, fortuitously, Carroll’s own reelection race looked to be one of the closest. He represented the liberal college town of Grinnell and had won the last time around by just a handful of votes.
Over the summer, Carroll’s opponent started receiving checks from across the country—significant sums for a statehouse race, though none so large as to arouse suspicion (the gifts topped out at $1,000). Because they came from individuals and not from organizations, nothing identified the money as being “gay,” or even coordinated. Only a very astute political operative would have spotted the unusual number of out-of-state donors and pondered their interest in an obscure midwestern race. And only someone truly versed in the world of gay causes would have noticed a $1,000 contribution from Denver, Colorado, and been aware that its source, Tim Gill, is the country’s biggest gay donor, and the nexus of an aggressive new force in national politics.

Back when Dan Quayle ran for President his wife campaigned for him against Ross Perot and his pockets. She said, "it goes to show that money can't buy an election."
But fear, that's another thing.
The further I read, the worse it got.
It is clear that there is a pro-gay agenda operating in American politics these days. What is not clear is that it is not neutral in its regard and treatment of non-gays.
They are not only pro-gay, they are anti-heterosexual. In effect, they are predatory on the human species.
So what I am saying is yes, there is something wrong with that.
I'm not really surprised. This is something that the "gays are ok" and "there's no gay agenda" crowd on FR should take a look at. Not that it will make much of a difference-I'm wagering a % of these people probably wrote checks to Carroll's opponent.

Pedophiles march in Gay Pirde Day parades, that whould make anyone on FR taht supports Gay anything stop dead in their tracks.
But I think that infiltration has happened at many levels in both FR and the Republican Party by those whose agenda has nothing to do with the right, but are really leftist's in sheeps clothing.
"But I think that infiltration has happened at many levels in both FR ......"

If you're interested....I suspect its probably easy to identify the "facilitators"..in fact JimRob could probably develop some type of screen that could pinpoint collectively the identities....
Oh yes it can. Carefully targeted money by a group of liberal millionaires, including Gill, bought a D win in the Colorado legislature.
I don't think it, I know it...
They are not the only ones. Remember the The Most Dangerous Game?
"Life is for the strong, to be lived by the strong, and, if needs be, taken by the strong. The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong. Why should I not use my gift? If I wish to hunt, why should I not? I hunt the scum of the earth: sailors from tramp ships--lassars, blacks, Chinese, whites, mongrels--a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them."
I suppose money is a strength for some. But as Aristotle once said, its a means, not an end. And winning an election is also a means.

One wonders how much of that money went to defeat Santorum last year. A ton, I'll wager.

While back was'nt it?
...Something to consider:
Is this same lefty money one of the driving forces behind the Giuliani campaign? Rudy is strongly pro-homosexual - he is Clinton's equal in this regard, calling for the overturning of don't ask don't tell and an openly gay military.
The question must be asked. It would be prudent for conservatives to go over his contribution record once it is revealed with a fine tooth comb and discover any discrepancies.
