Barone: Support for same-sex marriage crosses party lines
In an opinion article in the Columbus Dispatch, Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman announced that he has changed his mind and now supports same-sex marriage.
He wrote that on learning that one of his sons is gay, he “wrestled with how to reconcile my Christian faith with my desire for Will to have the same opportunities to pursue happiness and fulfillment as his brother and sister.”
He is not the only prominent Republican to come to this view in this way. Former Vice President Dick Cheney is another.
