The latest LA Times poll (10/23) shows 52-44 (with a margin of sampling error of 3 points) against Prop 8

Wow, I guess I'm biased by my region and expected it to pass easily. Missouri's amendment passed with 70% of the vote.

Prop 8 is a ban on "gay marriage". A vote against is a vote for marriage equality.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ted Stevens found guilty on all counts.

Odds that he'll still be re-elected?

Right, Missouri's ban passed with 70%. I'm surprised the 'Yes' vote is behind in the polls. Things are not so progressive around here, I figured CA would be more progressive but I didn't think it would be that much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not surprising for Orange County.

Oh, not at all.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Just came to post that Dana - I took the weekend mostly off politics, but this week I think I will be mainlining.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey, California is home of the Liberal Elite - Left Coast Division. Also, home of San Francisco Values. And dope-smoking hippies.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm a big ol' skipper but I'm guessing based on the congrats that bonbon and BobBob's wedding went off without a hitch? CONGRATULATIONS BonBob!

Wow, I guess I'm biased by my region and expected it to pass easily.

I think it probably would have before marriage was made legal for everyone here, but now it's a matter of actually taking away someone's established legal right to marriage. I suspect that's swaying some people to vote against Prop 8 even if they aren't that supportive of gay marriage.

I just finally read through all 12 state propositions. The only ones where I'm sure of my vote are #1 (high-speed rail) and #8.

I'm scared to read the 22 propositions relating to San Francisco alone.
