I would caution though that I think the verdict is still out on Daniels. There are more than 3 years left in his term. A lot can happen during that period of time. I could change my mind depending upon what he does. I do respect him for enacting and then defending his non-discrimination policy in the face of mounting criticism from the Christian right. While I am a registered Republican, I often scratch my ticket, depending on the individual candidate. In Indiana, there is often not a big difference between candidates of the 2 parties. I'm originally from Illinois where many Republicans still identify with the traditions of the Party of Lincoln as do I.Gary R.

Further, I will remind you that it is your forum to which I have been invited to comment as an audience participant <BR/><BR/>As for your statement, “ resorting to unfounded insults”: My opinion concerning “one-issue-veering, republican,” is supported by the fact that of the appromaiatedly 60 posts you have made the overwhelming majority concern the single issue of the inequities suffered by the queer community. While all truthfully articulated entries--thank you—there totality does not support the weblogs stated mission.<BR/><BR/>Therefore, with your very selective criticism of the republican party in mind, I do indeed suspect that you are co-opting the queer issue in order to migrate the Republican Party’s platform/position regarding their grossly immoral, injustice, devastating, unconstitutional--and in some cases—self –loathing modus operandi. <BR/><BR/>So, inquiring minds want to know:<BR/><BR/>Are you a self-identified gay man?<BR/>Are you a registered Republican?<BR/>Do you fully support Governor Daniels policy towards the queer community?<BR/>Should he run for re-election, would you encourage the lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender community to support the re-election of Governor Daniels? <BR/><BR/>Thank you for your attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1124833390494124972005-08-23T16:43:00.000-05:002005-08-23T16:43:00.000-05:00Kevin,<BR/><BR/>Thanks<BR/><BR/>Kay,<BR/><BR/>I try to conduct a little research about a person before I publish my opinions about them in a public forum. A little research on your part would have answered your question without the need to resort to unfounded insults. I would also recommend that you conduct a little historical research on the Republican Party, as well as the Democratic Party. You might actually learn something you don't already know about where the two parties have historically stood on civil rights. That aside, bipartisanship has always been essential to the enactment of civil rights.<BR/><BR/>GaryGary R.
