By LAURIE KELLMAN

WASHINGTON (AP) - A constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage was defeated as predicted in the Senate Wednesday, but supporters say new votes for the measure represent progress that gives the GOP's base reason to vote on Election Day.

So will anyone actually pay attention when "Orkin-Man" DeLay's successor from Ohio brings the same issue to a vote in the House next month? In a way, it's almost a good idea (for the rest of us) for them to do it...it should remove all doubt that it's nothing but an election year piece of red meat for the Rapture Rightists, and it should provide an even more entertaining batch of soundbites for the Democrats to use against their Republican opponents.

I'm eagerly looking forward to reading what Jean Schmidt, Representing Ohio's 2nd Congressional District (from which I was recently liberated), has to say on the matter, in her jingoist-chic red, white and blue outfit. Trés gauche!
