Take a Stand for Gay Equality

Wed Nov 22, 2006 at 09:17:52 AM PDT

Please forgive me if this has been posted already, but it's important and I'll gladly remove it if it has. Our old friend Mitt Romney, who would be worse than George W. Bush ever was on equality for gay and lesbians, is really pulling out all the stops to buck even McCain and Giuliani to become President.

The Boston Globe has posted an online poll asking whether Governor Mitt Romney is right to ask the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court to force the Legislature to vote on the anti gay marriage constitutional amendment.  At the moment we're losing 2 to 1 so please vote at this link:

While the marriage amendment is probably dead, Romney is making a lot of noise.  If sufficient legal or political pressure were brought to bear to force a vote at the recessed Constitutional Convention on January 2 we would lose, since the amendment needs only 50 votes out of 200 to proceed.  

Thanks!
