Don't get your hopes up too high.

Thanks for dumping a pail of water on my hopes and dreams..... :o{

Take a walk over to: washingtonpost.com

There should be the current poll of:

Would you support amending the U.S. Constitution to make it illegal for homosexual couples to get married anywhere in the U.S., or should each state make its own laws on homosexual marriage?

No doubt you have heard that the majority of people are opposed to same sex marriages, but look at the responses and segmentation...to my pleasant surprise, the majority [60%+]of people believe that it's a State issue; i.e., opposed to a US Constitutional amendment. When you look at the various segmentation, that holds pretty well across various categories. The exceptions being that Republicans are at 52% thinking it is a State issue and the Midwest at 53% thinking it's a State issue.

But cross the board the Constitutional amendment, if voted by the people, would lose.

They did remember their grammar school government studies....Keep the Feds out of the business of the States. Though the Republicans [and the midwest] didn't remember that part. <s>

Note: the sampling was not based on an internet survey.
