Gay Marriage Could Meet ‘Conspiracy of Silence’ on Campaign Trail
Opponents of same-sex marriage could try to inject Thursday’s California ruling into the presidential race by pointing to Sen. Barack Obama’s unambiguous support for fully repealing the federal Defense of Marriage Act DOMA.
But California’s decision is not likely to be taken up by presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain as he tries to reach out to moderates and independents.
“I don’t think [McCain's] going to talk about it that much,” ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos said on “World News With Charles Gibson.”
