The San Francisco Chronicle is the go to paper this morning.
The paper details that most national voters have their mind made up on same-sex marriage and all monies supporting campaigns like Proposition 8 is a waste:
The study by Patrick Egan of New York University looked at polling on gay marriage and domestic partner elections in 33 states since 1998 and found that no minds were changed despite millions in spending, hard-hitting advertising such as the much-quoted 'like it or not' TV spot with San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, and emotional pleas from both sides. By election day, voters who opposed same-sex marriage before the campaign still opposed it, and those who backed it continued to back it. 'The study indicates that when all of this (campaigning) is over, the result is a wash,' said Egan, who was joined by supporters of same-sex marriage at a news conference at San Francisco City Hall.
