As we wait with bated breath for any word out of the ABC News interview with President Obama, the alphabet network is spreading the news that Mitt Romney has reaffirmed his opposition to same-sex marriage and civil unions today in Colorado.
Reports ABC News:
Mitt Romney’s view on same-sex marriage isn’t evolving at all. He told a local reporter here today that domestic partnership benefits — including hospital visitation rights– are “appropriate, but that the others are not.”
“Well when these issues were raised in my state of Massachusetts, I indicated my view, which is I do not favor marriage between people of the same gender, and I do not favor civil unions if they are identical to marriage other than by name,” Romney told a Fox News affiliate, KDVR-TV, in an interview before a campaign event, his first in the state since he lost the GOP state primary in February.
All the more reason for Obama to draw yet another distinction between his campaign and his opposition.
