Another reason I hope the MA's fearless legislators decline to vote on
that gay marriage amendment is that a vote would count as a point for Mitt Romney, who's
just about to run for President. He'll have a passle of trouble getting the nomination--the Mormon thing aside, it can't be good for your central campaign message to be how much you despise the state that you were the governor of--but nonetheless I fear him. Paula Poundstone, whom we saw in November, summed it up pretty well [note that a Paula Poundstone audience in Cambridge, MA, is distinctly left-of-center, and mostly lesbian]:
Paula: "How about Mitt Romney? Is he going to be President, or what? He's so handsome and Presidential I think he's going to make it."
Audience: "
Noooo!"
Paula: "No, no, really! We're just not that smart! So you're fucked."
