Times story on this -- <A HREF="http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-gaymarriage8-2008oct08,0,693406.story" REL="nofollow">Foes of gay-marriage ban say poll shows Prop. 8 leading</A>. The story says in part:<BR/><BR/>"Opponents of a campaign to ban same-sex marriage in California said Tuesday that a new poll shows them in danger of losing -- unless people step forward with more contributions to pay for No on 8 television commercials.<BR/><BR/>"The opposition has enjoyed a healthy lead in several surveys taken by polling organizations that do not have a stake in the campaign. But officials with the No on 8 campaign held a conference call with reporters Tuesday to announce that their own poll showed the measure would pass by four points. Opponents attributed the result to fewer television ads, which is, in turn, a result of the No on 8 campaign falling behind in fundraising.<BR/><BR/>****<BR/><BR/>"Smith [campaign manager for No on 8] also said his forces are being outspent in part because of a surge in contributions from Mormon Church members.<BR/><BR/>"'I don't think we have ever seen a single religion in the state . . . so significantly participate in one political campaign,' Smith said."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238382886103256219.post-21095413071739096132008-10-08T07:45:00.000-07:002008-10-08T07:45:00.000-07:00The "no" ads need to expose the liars for what the...The "no" ads need to expose the liars for what they are, liars.
