Gay marriage isn’t going to be the single, biggest issue of the 2012 election.

It’s the freaking economy, the crushing debt, and the impending collapse of our system of government.

GAY MARRIAGE ISN’T THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE OF THE 2012 ELECTION.

CONTRACEPTION IS NOT IMPORTANT. SANTORUM’S FIRST ARTICLE ON HIS “ISSUES” PAGE IS ABOUT THE MENACE OF “ILLEGAL PORNOGRAPHY”. HIS PHOTOS ARE SHOVED FULL WITH AS MANY CHILDREN AS HE CAN FIT.

THIS... IS... NOT... WHAT... THIS... CAMPAIGN... SHOULD... BE... ABOUT!!!

If you think this vapid stuff is going anywhere, you’re out of your mind. People aren’t going to get up and go vote in mass to support a Catholic, who represents a minority religion of mostly left leaning people in the United States of America.

Why is everyone here against Romney? Because he’s for the gays. Because he’s promoted abortionists. Because he’s a gun grabber. Because nobody can trust his religion.

Ignore those ‘vapid’ issues and he’d be #1

Rick has talked at length about the economy, as well as national defense, etc., etc. He typically speaks about social issues only when asked. When asked he gives an honest answer.

Polls show that more than 50% of all Americans are pro-life. In my previous post I gave the example of the predominantly Democrat voters opposing same-sex marriage. Social issues aren’t Rick’s primary focus, but they can be a winning, not a losing, issue when mentioned.

One wonders about those who go into tantrums and post in all caps when social issues are mentioned. Perhaps it isn’t because they don’t think that the nation agrees with Rick, but because they themselves don’t agree with Rick.

How long have you been here? Since November of last year. Morals aren’t important to you and you say Catholics won’t get elected? Wrong on both counts. Seems like JFK was a Catholic and he got a lot of Dem votes.
Morals show what a person is made of. Without them, they don’t have much ground to stand on.

Yep.

The same crap was pulled on Perry vis a vis immigration... and it worked.

No but that's what the media is going to make it about. Once again we are letting them define and therefore select our candidate. They're hanging out at every event to grab every word and turn it to their advantage.

Though I'm sad to see so many here fall into their trap, I'm sure the majority of voters will also buy into the "news".
