By funny I meant ironic-funny, not “ha ha”-funny, but that's not really relevant. We'll see what happens with ballot initiatives this year, but even if they pass, it's not going to be nearly as powerful an issue as in 2004. In Wisconsin, a gay marriage ban passed in 2006, but that didn't stop the voters from overwhelming re-electing a Democrats to virtually every statewide office. This election pony trick isn't going to work anymore.

Democrats vote for marriage as well, blacks especially.

In virginia, the marriage amendment didn’t help George Allen because it had nothing to do with candidates, and the democrat successfully and falsely painted him as a racist, so when the blacks came out to vote for marriage, they voted for the democrat.
