The New York Times did a piece on Saturday about gay aspiring politicians. These candidates attend workshops on campaign strategies.
They dealt with issues like the importance of knocking on doors (“One way to break down barriers is to get introduced,” advised Joe Fuld, the strategist running the session), how much money they must raise (twice as much as straight candidates, Mr. Fuld said) and what kind of photographs to use in campaign pamphlets.
“It’s always the family, the kids,” one would-be candidate lamented. “If you’re a gay person who’s single, do you put a picture with your dog?”
Uh, NO! We say ditch the dog. Be a maverick and put your partner, FUCK THEM!! Some people are gay , GET OVER IT!!
MSNBC touches on the subject too:
