Here’s a quick roundup of what’s going down on the marriage front:
The New York Times notes that hitch-happy lesbigays are “rushing to the altar” in advance of the November election, with more gay people married in CA in the last few months than in the four years since it’s been legal in Massachusetts.
The backers of Prop 8 currently have an end-run war chest about $10 million bigger than the No on 8 camp. And now the polls may be slipping in the wrong direction, even though just a week ago a small majority still said they’d vote no on the measure. The Yes on 8 people have a new attack ad featuring a snarling GavGav screaming, essentially, “I’m going to shove gay marriage down your throats like I shoved my thick cock down my wife Jennifer’s throat on our wedding night.” (JK! We have no idea how thick his cock is.) Here’s the ad, in case you’ve missed it:
The Yes on 8 assholes are also psyched that Barack is going to bring out the black vote, and everyone knows the blacks aren’t down with the gays (their words, not ours).
Consequently the No on 8 people are freaking out and hoping to raise some more money. One pollster says that 20% of CA voters are still undecided, so it could still swing either way.
Meanwhile the fucking Mormons are reaching across state lines and getting ready to recruit Brigham Young University students to participate in phone trees, calling voters and telling them to support Prop 8.
