AP Survey: Support for anti-gay marriage amendment collapses on Beacon Hil

"More than a dozen lawmakers who voted for it the first time around said they will switch their votes this week, either because they fully support gay marriage or oppose civil unions.

Others simply said that after more than a year of watching gay couples marry with no ill effect on society, they see no need to rescind the right."

Just as many of us predicted.....

2. Let's not get complacent. And remember one thing...
while we on the left are busy "exploiting" Katrina victims by offering aid, money, and volunteering time...

The Xians on the right are busy "protecting families" by protesting against gay rights.

3. Wow that was a slaughter
157-39.

Wow! I knew the amendment wouldn't pass, but that is quite a turn around. Kudos to everyone who fought so hard to elect good candidates to oppose this.
