On the FB, Our Fearless Leader (Leagl) has opined that with the Mass Court rejecting the state law banning gay marriage, this will now be the predominant domestic issue in the upcoming campaign.

She might be right -- this is something that's always gotten the Christian conservatives wrapped 'round the axle.

This Slate article has an interesting take on why that's so*.



So, expect to hear more from the Christian Right that gay marriage is apocalyptic because (1) it's, you know, bad**, but more importantly (2) a more secular argument -- that it signals the erosion and collapse of civil society.

* At least to me.

** And generally icky in the view of those who oppose it.

The DEMs should not want this, based on the poll numbers.
