Since When Are We Behind South Africa?

I'm really ashamed of my country right now. South Africa's parliament has just approved same-sex marriages. We're in the process of banning it state by state. Hell, even Spain has same-sex marriage!

Here Come the Brides...

New Jersey's Supreme Court has ruled that the state must give gay couples the same rights as straight ones. Normally I'd be all for this, but couldn't we have waited until November 8th? I'm worried that we'll see a conservative backlash because of this, and according to Slate, Menendez is only 4 points ahead of Kean.
