And Then You Win

Here's my hometown mayor, Jerry Sanders, explaining why he decided to break an election promise to veto any legislation in support of gay marriage:

This seems a much bigger deal to me than Gavin Newsom's grandstanding a few years ago. San Diego is a little island of Red America in our People's Republic, and eventual acceptance there by an elected Republican is an incredibly promising sign. It's just this kind of private victory of conscience that lets the good guys win in the end.

So: yay progress!
