Trends

Nate Silver has a very clear exposition of the current trends in support for same-sex marriage, and some observations on the Republicans now finding themselves in a quandary on that and related gay issues.

I've been seeing this coming for a while, and it's nice to have someone like Silver pointing it out. It will be interesting to see what happens to the "social conservatives" in 2012.

This is especially interesting in light of the Republican-controlled House of Representatives taking time off from their busy job-creation schedule (ahem!) to defend the unconscionable DOMA in court. Good luck with that.
