Prop 8 folks in California are you listening?
This ad is what your campaign should have been centered around.
It was probably the most frustrating thing about last fall's elections. I was out there working to elect President Obama and a local assemblywoman but I was paying close attention to the campaign against Prop 8. I voted against it and encouraged everyone I know to do the same. Watching the No on 8 television ads made me pull my hair out. Did they even use a single gay person or family in those ads? This is the campaign they should have been running. Instead the No on 8 campaign let the debate be framed by their opponents. They spent their time and money defending against charges that kids would be taught gay marriage in schools and that churches would lose their funding for not marrying gay people.
With ads like this and a lot of hard, the rights of gay families in Maine can be protected from the bigots. Good work.
