McCains lend a hand to gay Republican group
CNN - Political Ticker ^ | 2009-04-16

Posted on 04/16/2009 2:35:27 PM PDT by rabscuttle385

(CNN) – Log Cabin Republicans are getting some support from the McCain family.

Cindy and Meghan McCain will make an appearance at the gay rights organization's four day convention in Washington, which kicks off Thursday night.

"Of all the causes I believe in and speak publicly about, this is one of the ones closest to my heart," Meghan McCain, a vocal supporter of same-sex marriage, wrote in the Daily Beast this week. "If the Republican Party has any hope of gaining substantial support from a wider, younger base, we need to get past our anti-gay rhetoric."

Steve Schmidt, former senior strategist for John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign and manager of Arnold Schwarzenegger's gubernatorial reelection campaign in 2006, will also be in attendance. Schmidt will be speaking about the 2008 election and the GOP's comeback agenda.

The fat broad in the oddly stripped black and red thing looks like a lesbo to me.

In an interview Thursday with CNN, LCR Spokesperson Charles Moran said the organization is lobbying New York Republicans to help pass the same-sex marriage law championed by the state's Democratic Gov. David Paterson.

. . . . .

The group is also working on identifying the Republican players who will serve as the face of their organization's mission.

Moran citied Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, a Mormon Republican who has called for the adoption of civil unions, and Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, who acknowledged that gay Republicans have a place at the party's table.

On a slightly different topic, what was the result of the special congressional election in NY? Last I heard, the Rep was slightly ahead.

As of 10 am, this morning, Apr 16, Murphy the Democrat leads by 167. Many of the paper ballots have now been counted.

I assume most freepers did.

My problem with it, in part, is that she had no problem being on the ticket WITH him.

Thanks. What is the outlook for an eventual Rep victory? Have military ballots been counted?

You might want to check this site each day.

Last week, both candidates had the exact number, I think, 77,725 each, so Murphy now leading by 167 seems like a big lead!

Military and other absentee ballots-the count for these began on Monday, April 13. How far a long they are in this is NOT clear to me, and I do NOT have any other inside information.

I feel sorry for Cindy. Other than that, I wish these two dolts would go away.
