2. Four COURAGEOUS Republicans
Who are going to need a LOT of support from fair minded voters next time. The (once) powerful Conservative party, and groups like National Organization for Marriage have them in their crosshairs.

3. I say give credit where it is due
They should be commended for doing the right thing and risking the political fallout they will recieve from their party.

5. Enough to pass it.
How many Presidents came out in support of marriage equality? Not enough. Not one. Since we are counting and all. Right now, you have 4 NY Republicans doing what Barack Obama refuses to do. That is 4 vs 0. A sad, sad, state of affairs. And speaking of affairs, ever notice how the President never gets into a tizzy about God and Sacraments when one of his own straight peers is involved in lurid trysts and the like? He can look at Ensign and never mention defending the Sacrament. Why is that? He looks at Arnold's various families and he does not shout about 'God in the mix'. Why?
