Yeah, those referendum results on gay marriage were rather embarrassing. It only emphasises the major differences between Western Europe's progressive elements and the US's more traditional ones... [/QUOTE]Not embarrassing, but sadly expected when the Republicans can rally so many moral mammys?
BTW I disagree that traditional elements are at work here, the trend in America since it is founding has been a steady movement forward to provide equal rights and benefits of citizenship to all. If anything, regressive ( and maybe repressive) elements won today and the traditional elements, which are truly progressive, lost.
