“I think Michelle Bachmann would. Would Ted Cruz? Rand Paul? Rubio? Would Alan West? Ben Carson? Would Sarah Palin? I really would like to know who would have that kind of strength”
All the above but Rand Paul. He is too “libertarian” like his old man, who voted to lift DADT. He’s wishy washy on marriage and never puts faith into the conversation when asked. He will say it should be left up to the states to define, but will not mention God’s plan for man and woman.
True liberty minded Republicans and Libertarians believe in freedom of association and letting the free market work.
I'm honestly not surprised the Pope, the President of the SBC, and other national/international Christian leaders aren't getting involved in a local state issue. There are thousands of such events every day around the world. That being said, the top Christian clergy and religious officials IN Arizona CERTAINLY should be vocally taking a side on this, and doing everything they can to encourage Gov. Brewer to sign the bill. But I haven't heard them doing anything.

Romney and McCain were always considered RINOs, but where's Newt's fan club now? I thought he was the “bold Reagan conservative” that was the “last conservative standing” and “our beloved Republic deserved nothing less” ::rolls eyes::

Agreed that Rand Paul would cave, he's another overhyped "Tea Party" candidate. I said from the beginning I didn't trust the guy on social issues but his fan club ignored it. Bill Johnson should have been the GOP nominee in an ideal world.
