Thanks Mr. President

Well there you have it. President Obama now supports gay marriage. Will this declaration fire-up the Democratic base enough to push him into a second term? Or will his thoughts now drive the conservatives out on election day to take back the White House?

Of course, Mitt Romney on the flip side stated in Denver he's against gay marriage and civil unions - specifically that his view is, "... domestic partnership benefits, hospital visitation rights, and the like are appropriate but that the others are not.” What exactly are the "others" he refers to? Inheritance laws? Social security benefits?

A line has been drawn. Here's to hoping the under 30s get out and vote. Otherwise, I'm afraid Mr. President's appropriate declaration just sent Mitt Romney to the Oval Office.
