New Hampshire has town meetings every year. It's direct democracy in action where the average citizens make their will known. This year, towns are voting on warrants to call for a vote on the definition of marriage. The voters are having their say in the town meetings and their voices will be considered by any politician who wants to hold their seat and the results?

So far it has passed in every town that we have results for, with the exception of five small towns where less than 100 people voted on the article. 

Mind you this in New England where opposition to same sex marriage is said to be at the root of the Party's problem. I'd submit with what we're seeing in New Hampshire, with Maine last year having voted to ban same sex marriage that it's silly subterfuge to imagine that opposition to same sex marriage is a liability to the conservative movement. (Need I say Proposition 8.) Even in the District Columbia that votes overwhelmingly for Democrats, the only way they have same sex marriage is that they declined to let the people vote on it.

Same Sex Marriage is not going to have popular support and if it becomes universal, it will be only by judicial fiat or by legislators pushed around by slick special interests, not by the will of the people.
