A Win for Gay Marriage in New York

Much to my surprise Governor Cuomo managed to pull it off and get Gay Marriage legalized in New York.

Cuomo managed to put together an unlikely coalition including a number of high profile Wall Street GOP supporters to allay fears that voting for Gay Marriage was the death knell for a Republican legislator.

We’ll see how well that one works out.

Even more amazing was Cuomo’s ability to somehow manage to neutralize the Catholic Church which, in the final analysis, did little more than whimper in opposition to the bill.

Well, now there are six. Here’s hoping this will cause Rhode Island and Maryland to reconsider their recent failures in this area.
