Interview, Feb 21 - As Republican John McCain attempts to appeal to conservatives,
a constituency he's been struggling with, LGBT issues could be an avenue.
We speak with John Hoadley, Executive Director of National
Stonewall Democrats about which route McCain might go,
and why the leading Democratic candidates
don't support same sex marriage.
"..we're choosing between two great candidates, on LGBT issues, on the Democratic
side... we're seeing
candidates talk about LGBT issues in front of non-gay audiences - and that's
a huge move from where we were before.."
".. the problem we have with all the Republican nominees - unfortunately,
this primary process is bringing out the worst in all of them."
You will find audio, video, blogs, and hard-hitting analysis from progressive journalists. Each day, unravel the double speak of candidates and media pundits, with news and alternative perspectives about the critical issues.
