recently a number of prominent republicans came out in favor of gay marriage. none of them currently hold an elected office. which i find very interesting. where were these people when they did hold office? they toed the line. it's a world where toeing the line is more important than holding to your own personal ideals. which is the republican party's greatest strength and simultaneously it's greatest weakness. united, stuff can get done. which is powerful. however, the stuff that gets done isn't necessarily what's best. or even what's morally right. which makes that power terrifyingly horrific. or horrifically terrifying. not sure which dominates.
