Gay Rage to Bring GOP Control Back to Congress

I guess you can never please some people:  

"Democrats may feel anger by gay voters on Nov. 2

If Democratic candidates are counting on long-standing support from gay voters to help stave off big losses on Nov. 2, they could be in for a surprise.

Across the country, activists say gay voters are angry — at the lack of progress on issues from eliminating employment discrimination to uncertainty over serving in the military to the economy — and some are choosing to sit out this election or look for other candidates. 

They have gone to the Log Cabin and become Repuglicans?

In President Obama’s hometown of Chicago, Kate Coatar said she is seriously considering voting for Green Party candidates instead of Democrats, whom she normally supports.

“It’s all talk, and nothing’s happening, and I’m just over it,’’ said Coatar, 62, a church business manager who said she’s as concerned about health care and homelessness as about gay issues. “I don’t know who to vote for and the election is a week away.’’
