A leading anti-gay figure in the Republican Party attacked Governor Mitt Romney for hiring an openly gay spokesman, sending a shot from the GOP's socially-conservative base across the nominee's bow.

3. So wondering how he thinks he is going to walk that delicate tight rope

before falling on his own petard and then his face. Since he is the consumate (snark) speaker and fumbles with his words before changing his mind.

4. Every direction he goes will cause him harm.

First off, I'm pretty sure most LGBT folks realize Rmoney is no friend to them and are unlikely to change that view due to a campaign hire.

Secondly, such a move is sure to piss of the Republican base so....looks like zero gain for Mittens (again).

adopt etc. but they can't even have jobs ? go out in the streets starve and die ?
