Gay-Adoption Ban Trailing In Arkansas
A new poll -- which shows McCain leading Obama by 13 in Arkansas, a poor omen for my 35-state prediction -- shows 55% opposing a ballot initiative aimed at preventing same-sex couples from adopting, or being a foster parent. The initiative's chances are probably not helped by the broad wording, which tries to avoid the appearance of homophobia by prohibiting couples cohabiting outside of a legally valid marriage.
