Was Prop 8 a diversion?
Was Prop 8 which surprisingly passed a diversion from similar measures in Arizona and Florida?

How so? Theirs failed also, and so did the measure in Arkansas to allow gay couples to adopt.

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/res...llot.measures/ The measure in Florida banning gay marriage passed resoundedly, and it passed in Arizona. Was Prop 8 deemed a sacrifice so that the national funds wouldn't be available to fight the other ones? |
I think you are reading them wrong. They didn't vote to allow gay marriage, they voted to ban it.
Arizona: Should the state ban gay marriage? Majority: YES California: Should the state ban gay marriage? Majority: YES Florida: Should the state ban gay marriage? Majority: YES |

Was the Prop 8 a diversion to ensure passages of other bans? |

What bothers me the most is the self-aggrandizement nature of those who consider themselves the wheat amidst the tares when they were able to get behind an issue they would have gotten behind regardless. |

For one, the church has more members in California and therefore a greater chance to affect the election.
For another, California is the bigger fish. "As California goes, so goes the nation." |
