As happy as I am for Obama and the Congressional gain, things did not go well for gay

[No Elephants]

people last night in terms of state Constitutional amendments and ballot questions. I think even California Prop 8 is still too close to call. Florida went the wrong way, etc. I am so very, very sorry.

1. The fight will go on to the Supreme Court.

And Chimpy won't be around to stick any more fascists on the bench.

2. I'm so sorry

amazing there is still so much hate and fear in the world. Maybe we can change it.

3. I'm sorry too

Don't be too disheartened. There is going to be a LOT of change during Obama's Presidency (GOD that sounds good!) and even though things look bleak now for gay rights, I know your time will come. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

4. We're losing Prop 8...

And it doesn't look like it's going to get any better.

thank you so much for your support. I am disheartened by the bigotry, and I think you'll like what I wrote in my thread

SO sad that even FL, which had to get 60%! got it! ugh..... Obama won there, and still many Obama voters still voted hate. I'm so proud of Obama though...

6. well

in CT we rejected the constitutional convention question that would have allowed the fundies to overturn gay marriage. It's a small victory.
