Watch this space for updates on an already fascinating array of Republican responses to President Barack Obama's interview comments in support of gay marriage.
First in: last night on FOX, Bill O'Reilly and Dick Morris muddle through an attempt to describe this as a bald political move. They had a tough time of it. They couldn't settle on what voting block Obama was going after. Morris first suggests he is trying to lock in the gay vote, while O'Reilly sheepishly points out that the president probably had that vote already. Morris shifts to the claim that it's an obvious grab for the middle-of-the-road voters. O'Reilly is forced to acknowledge that minutes earlier they had just agreed that middle-of-the-road voters don't really care about this issue. Morris flounders and seethes - perhaps Obama is pandering to the fringe. O'Reilly looks like he'd rather be anywhere but there and vaguely agrees so he can change the subject to Morris's latest book.
