He's doing the Mitch Daniels tapdance. I'm not against it, but I'm not for it either.

Pshaw. If you can't stand up and say discrimination is flat-out wrong, you don't deserve to lead.

"Cough, cough, gay, cough, cough.

Being divorced & remaining single in spite of good looks = closet case?

Oh please....
Why do we always have to stoop to the lowest common denominator?

Not only does it distract from the real issue it makes us look bad.

Btw: I wanted to say that my comment was not intended to be personal. I just get frustrated with gay media and bloggers who jump to these assumptions.

For example: My mother's second husband also married once--to my mother--it lasted six months and he never remarried even though he's reasonably attractive. I am certain without doubt he is a card carrying hetero. So the assumptions made here seem a bit tactless.

While Charlie Crist says the amendment does not "move him", he did sign the petition to get it one the ballot. How much more supportive of something can you be than to sign a petition to get it on the ballot (during an election cycle? Hmm…)?

I hate politicians who want to have it both ways.

Being divorced & remaining single in spite of good looks = closet case?

No, but gay men saying they've slept with him a la Larry Craig & investigative reporting coupled with a buried story by the paper editors = probably a closet case. Throw in divorced & remaining single while avoiding anything remotely "gay" like it's on fire? I'd say there's a darn good chance.

Besides, there's nothing wrong with making judgements based on the information you have at the time. We do it all the time. If you see a big flamer walking down the street, you think "Gay." You might be wrong, but from experience you can make an "educated" guess. In this case it might be a guess, but there's a reason for it.
