I had this conversation this morning, elsewhere. Note that eight years ago Prop 22 got 61% of the vote, while yesterday Prop 8 garnered only 52%. Stats show it's the elderly who are overwhelmingly against gay marriage. So give it a few years.

So sometime in the first half of the next decade, be prepared to be asked to pony up even more $$$, and then again year after year, state by state.
