i'm almost hoping palin enters the race, she and bachmann could split that vote, and leave the nomination to be won by someone with more sense.
i would love to be able to ask anyone signing that pledge how they feel that move squares with being the party of 'less government'. doesn't less govt mean staying out of peoples' personal lives?

the feds need to get rid of DOMA. its not left up to the states when the states approve gay marriage, but those couples getting married are not offered the federal benefits. DOMA seems unconstitutional to me.
