Myths about Prop 8

Nate Silver states on Five Thirty Eight:

The good news for supporters of marriage equity is that -- and there's no polite way to put this -- the older voters aren't going to be around for all that much longer, and they'll gradually be cycled out and replaced by younger voters who grew up in a more tolerant era. Everyone knew going in that Prop 8 was going to be a photo finish -- California might be just progressive enough and 2008 might be just soon enough for the voters to affirm marriage equity. Or, it might fall just short, which is what happened. But two or four or six or eight years from now, it will get across the finish line.

Prop 8 Myths

Great, let the old bigots die and hope the youngs who voted against Prop 8 don't change their mind as they (naturally, remember what Churchill said) become more conservative as they age...
