S.F.: LGBT votes split on Super Tuesday
February 5, 2008 – 10:42 am
In my reporting around these parts, I found the gay vote tilting a bit toward Hillary. But the San Francisco Chronicle is reporting their gays are split on their Democratic choices.
Clinton has tapped into the network of gay support that her husband forged during his presidency and started with a stronger base of gay support, [...]

Hillary Supporters Get Out The Gay Vote
January 25, 2008 – 2:12 pm
Hillary Clinton supporters will be working hard in the gay community tonight, drumming up support for their candidate.

Hillary On LGBT Youth
January 25, 2008 – 12:45 pm
Hillary answered a question on her online forum about GLBT youth and the high rates of depression and suicide. (At about 3:40).
She says there need to be more services, particularly efforts to educate teachers and peers. She also suggests mentoring.
“We’ve got to send a clear message that we value you as a total person,” she [...]
Wish He Would Run
January 23, 2008 – 2:36 pm
Even more proof that I wish Al Gore would step back into the political ring… He has now come out in full support for gay marriage. And that’s more than we can say for ahem…. any of the other candidates.
But why now? What would be Gore’s motivation for showing the disparity between [...]
Huck Goes There … Again
January 17, 2008 – 12:58 pm
It’s difficult for opponents of gay marriage to stay on topic without wandering off to some harshly perverted place. It’s no different for a conservative presidential candidate. Here’s Mike Huckabee’s interview with belief.net where he lumps us gays with pedophiles, and bestiality.
BELIEF.NET: Is it your goal to bring the Constitution into strict conformity with the [...]
Obama Picks Gay “The Wire” Character As Fav
January 14, 2008 – 2:45 pm
Okay, we’re back from the holidays. I know what you’re thinking: “It’s been weeks! Weeks!” We know. It’s been a really, really long disco nap.
We’ve actually been covering presidential politics like mad. So, it should come as no surprise that our first post out of the gate is about both gays and politics.
Sen. Barack Obama [...]
Stonewall Democrats Ready For Big Meeting
December 10, 2007 – 3:24 pm
Charleston’s Stonewall Democrats dropped us a line about this week’s big meeting.
Special guests include Jon Hoadley, Executive Director of the National Stonewall Democrats, both State and County representatives from the Democratic Party, candidates running for office, and representatives from some of the Presidential campaigns.
You will be amazed at how far we have come and how [...]
Federal Hate Crimes Bill Dead

This news from 365 gay:
Thursday Senate conferees reluctantly agreed to strip the Shepard Act from the defense bill, realizing that they lack the votes to pass the measure.
In a private meeting Wednesday night, House Majority Leader Steny [...]
Log Cabin Fashion Advise: Ditch the Mitt-Flops
November 29, 2007 – 4:20 pm
The Log Cabin Republicans have a new ad on the radio in New Hampshire today against Mitt Romney. Like the last TV spot, the new ad doesn’t address Mitt’s shift against protections for gays and lesbians, but instead highlights Romney’s abuses against the people of New Hampshire when he was the Mass. governor through tax [...]
