I think, with the exception of the fact that, as Hank noted, America ain't ready to invite gay folk into the PTA and the potluck supper, the '04 election was more about the Islamic Peril than anything else.
I don't know that a greater emphasis in the Supremes would have made a difference. The issue was widely discussed among the people who care, on both sides of the political spectrum, and the big bulge in the middle just doesn't pay enough attention for it to matter.
