Schwarzenegger opponent would sign gay marriage bill into law

Phil Angelides, Gov. Schwarzenegger's Democratic challenger, declared on Friday that he would sign a gay marriage bill into law if he became governor.

From The Advocate

Phil Angelides held a news conference along with New York senator Hillary Clinton the day after the highest court in her state refused to recognize same-sex marriage, saying it was up to the legislature.

Last year Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill that would have legalized same-sex marriage in California for the exact opposite reason, saying it was up to the courts or the voters to decide and not the legislature. Though Senator Clinton ducked questions about the New York court ruling, Angelides said that if California's legislature were to pass another same-sex marriage bill, he would sign it. He told reporters simply, "If we can get behind people to build a lasting relationship, that is a good thing."

A poll this week by the research institute at San Jose State University shows Angelides trailing Schwarzenegger by seven points.

This is nothing more than a desperate attempt to gain "gay" votes in the upcoming primary. As we are all to aware, nowadays a Governor's wishes rarely make it into law when the Senators are against it.
More Political rhetoric!!
