Republican Senator Reverses on Gay Marriage

But you do like to argue, and my point was never about how you personally feel about him, my point was that he isn't going to win over liberal voters just because he changed his stance only alienate conservative voters.  I realize I'm using liberal and conservative very generally here. 
  Of course I like to argue, but that has nothing to do with this topic.  My point is that liberals in general like him more now than they did before.
Not the best move from a political standpoint, but a good move on a personal level.
I don't think it was meant to be a good political move, although, it appears he waited for a good time to announce this, since his son came out 2 years ago.  However, I have to believe some republicans see the writing on the wall.  In a few years, supporting same-sex marriage will be the only way to go.  Maybe it's not such a bad political move.

Well of course.  If the leader of the KKK renouces it and says he's no longer racist, I'm sure blacks like him more now than they did before, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on that invitation to the Kwanzaa party.

Moderate Repubs are pretty much the same as Demos and they are why the Republican Party is lost, most of the time.

I'm sure you're talking about social issue, which are simply used to marginalize the middle, like Gay Marriage for instance.
