Wow. So because I vote Republican _and_ I'm gay, I'm racist? I really can't believe you think that.

db, I don't believe that it's always as simple to say that all republicans are bigots but I can see why you have that opinion. It touched me when you said that 50 percent of Americans don't want you in their country. It's discourging that you feel that way. I wish I were anquanted with someone who was a minority or gay who voted republican. I would love to know why? I saw a documentary which featured the Log Cabin Republicans they did seem to be pretty lily white but is that more about the gay community or the republican community. I hope you feel better soon.

I'm as depressed by the result I was when bloody Thatcher got in again when all predictions were she wouldn't. If it's any consolation her lot were thoroughly routed in the end, even though it took a little while. Fingers crossed for 4 years time, eh?

I'm actually friends with a gay republican, he is not racist but I have been confused by the way his mind works when it comes to politics and the way our country needs to be run. My feeling is that he comes from big money, and money rules the republican world. I was pretty depressed by the results, especially in our state (I live in Atlanta too). It was disheartening, makes me want to get the hell out of here and go north or west. Hilary and Obama in '08, that's what I'm holding out hope for! :)
