Gingrich needs to update his mailing list

Loose Lips reports that Newt Gingrich sent ANC 3F07 Commissioner and past GLAA president Bob Summersgill a fundraising message beginning "Dear Conservative":

For the record, Summersgill, who was one of the leading proponents of the District's marriage equality law and is active in the city's Democratic establishment, says he's unmoved by Gingrich's plea and doesn't plan to vote for him. "Gingrich said gay people shouldn't support him," emails Summersgill, likely referring to this exchange. "He said we should vote for Obama."

Yes. I am aware that exit polls from prior elections suggest that roughly one-fourth of self-identified gay voters will vote for Newt anyway (in the unlikely event that he gets the Republican nomination). At the same time, all-or-nothing gay leftists will stay home or vote for a third-party candidate because the most productive president on gay issues in history did not magically give them everything they wanted. You can make your best arguments, but in the end you cannot control other people's choices. That is all right. Be responsible for yourself. Stand up and be counted.
