Prop 8: The Heat Is On

Take a look at this video, which speaks to the very tip of the sexual iceberg that will break open without a Yes on Prop 8 win.

Here’s a word of update from Steve Linder of ProtectMarriage.com on Proposition 8. The California Teachers Association and other likeminded groups are uniting in the face of the lead that pro-8ers have shown in the California polls. Steve writes:

Dear Friend,

With the polls showing Prop 8 moving into the lead, our opponents have sounded the alarm and are seeing millions pour in. What’s more, they’ve taken a 9-to-1 lead in fundraising in just the last week.

But don’t just take my word for it. The San Jose Mercury News reports:

Equality California, the lead organization for the No on 8 campaign, has raised more than $3 million within California since Oct. 6, including a $1 million contribution Tuesday from the California Teachers Association.

Since Oct. 6, large contributions to ProtectMarriage.com, the lead group supporting Proposition 8, have totaled just $405,969.

The No on 8 campaign has also received commitments for an additional $4 million in donations that have not been received, said Kate Kendell, a member of the campaign’s executive committee.

Over $3 million vs. $405,969 — with an extra $4 million on the way.
