Turns out, after Mitt moves on to another table, that the veteran is gay, and the guy sitting with him is his husband. They were married in New Hampshire. The guy will not be voting for Mitt.

Romney questioned by veteran at diner
Veteran responds to Romney's answer to reporters
To be fair, Obama hasn't exactly been a strong supporter of gay marriage either. There is no doubt that a Republican in the White House would be a step backwards for gay rights but I suspect they see Obama only as the lesser of two evils.
