[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;33872061]lol i beg to differ. he virtually just said "you gays don't exist to me/my campaign"[/QUOTE] [I]lost [B]any more[/B] respect[/I] It was pretty fucking obvious that he never had their votes in his campaign to begin with, so why bother trying to win them over at the expense of a larger, more influential group?
he's a piece of human garbage anyway. i wouldn't vote for him no matter what my orientation is.
[QUOTE=KorJax;33871446]It's one of those things that's just like Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, where you gotta be able to eat and have shelter to survive before you can be a creative individual capable of genuine morality or problem solving.[/QUOTE] Sex and a secure family are baseline on Maslow's hierarchy, though, so that's a really bad thing to bring up saying "you shouldn't care about this now."

You gotta remember, people who won't vote for him are still influential prior to the actual election, because we laugh off people. Part of what made Obama was the GOP talking about him so damn much. If Gingrich actually seemed halfway intelligent, he might lose some of his hardcore voters, but also better his odds of being last righty standing because the left would immediately start talking about him as if he were the biggest threat.
Why are all the candidates in your country horrible, lying bastards.

Looks like I'm voting for Obama then.
