http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/112795-axelrod-obama-remains-opposed-gay-marriage This is something I can actually agree with Obama on!
Oh, so that's what y'all meant by a thread without any posts. EDIT: WTF? the OP just appeared. It was missing when I replied.
So what meme do we go with for this one? That he's appealing to the nation of Islam? Fundamentalist Christian minorities?
Actually, if it's pandering (as opposed to trying to have it both ways) he's pandering to the black vote which is VERY heavily opposed to gay marriage.
I really wish he would. Many of his supporters are people who are in favor of gay marriage, myself being one of them. As long as he does support gay marriage on a civil rights level, then what he believes on a personal level is his business.
