It looks like they might have in Virgina where people mobilized (unsuccessfully) to defeat the anti-gay marriage amendment. I blogged earlier about how Virginia's amendment may have backfired on Republicans by bringing more African American voters to the polls, who were likely to vote for the amendment but against George Allen. Now it seems the gay and gay-friendly vote may have combined with the homophobic black vote to hand Democrats a victory in a close race. So, maybe gays did help deliver the Senate for Democrats. Now, what will we get for it? What can we reasonably ask for?
