I know you don't mean it this way, but could we also assume that many Liberals would support fornication and having affairs because they supported clinton?
Are liberals responsible for 911 because Clinton refused to capture Osama in 1996?
I don't think they are. You can't have a perfect client. You vote for who you believe covers most of your beliefs. Our country allows change as time goes on. This situation now with gay marraiges. The institution of marraige has been in place for centuries, if you can't change it now, try again when people are more willing. If they don't want to change it then analyze why you really want it and see if you can get those individual rights.
If some people are just fighting to have the good fight, then you risk alienating more and more people. If gays can't marry it doesn't mean they can't still love each other, and work for some of the rights a married couple has. It's not a downright defeat.
I for one hope that eventually can get "married" or whatever media coined termed is popular at the time.
