1. He was great....
...and also great again this morning. Rather than stick with the 'safe out' by saying that we should let the states discriminate, he called this for what it is - bigoted crap. And he didn't whine about how he doesn't support gay marriage, but can't support FMA - another safety net. He opposes discrimination, period.

Thank god for a Democrat with principles.
