Indiana & North Carolina Primary Results – Same Story, Different Night Op-Ed By Duane Wells On the campaign trail in North Carolina last week, Hillary Clinton said last night’s primaries could be a ‘game changer’. They weren’t. After his loss in the Pennsylvania, Barack Obama called Indiana’s primary a ‘tie-breaker.’ It wasn’t. Instead Clinton won Indiana, Barack Obama won North Carolina.

Hypocrite of the Week: CNN Contributor Roland S. Martin By Duane Wells CNN contributor Roland S. Martin finally went too far in his gyrations to leap to Barack Obama’s aid.

The Politics of Same Sex Marriage Op-Ed By Rebecca Stigall As the courts of the nation struggle to define marriage in a legal sense, devoid of its religiousness, the nation's politicians are not required to follow the same path. In fact, the majority of American politicians have publicly stated that marriage is a state that is, in their interpretation, to be entered into between a man and a woman. Where then, does this leave same sex couples? ....more

To the folks at CNN, this might be good for three seconds of eye candy before moving on to their next email. But to Alek Tomovic and Steph Marquete, the sexy couple behind OhLaLaMag, this is the sort of stuff that keeps the lights on. Sexy mean holding a pup? Stop the presses! ....more

The Gay Vote: Hillary Clinton’s Secret Weapon Dissecting Hillary Clinton’s support among gay and lesbian voters By Duane Wells Offering up a political cocktail composed of one part history, one part organization and one part camp appeal, Hillary Clinton has managed to keep LGBT voters intoxicated with her candidacy throughout one of the most grueling campaigns in recent memory. Gays love a camp figure, and as Hillary approaches the national convention, we can almost hear her now: 'Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be a bumpy night!' ....more
