and I bet you $100 that this amendment will never be part of the constitution. Bush (or at least Rove) knows this and doesn't care. Apparently they are desperate and are trying to use this a wedge issue because they can't run on their record.

It will back fire on them IMO because the only people this really appeals to are not going to vote for the Dem anyway. If they really need to shore up their base with devices issues they are all but sunk. There may not be a general consensus on the issue, but most Americans reject the hate and bigotry inherent in the anti gay marriage activism.
