Looks like more and more of the faithful are joining the godless - or finding they have better things to do (like, say, trying to find healthcare) than trying to stop them: ...the opponents of gay marriage say they are puzzling over why such a volatile cultural issue is not spurring more rank-and-file conservative Christians to rise up in support of the amendment. They are especially frustrated, they say, because opinion polls show that a large majority of voters oppose gay marriage. "Our side is basically asleep right now," Matt Daniels, founder of the Alliance for Marriage, which helped draft the proposed amendment, said in an interview last week. The Rev. Louis P. Sheldon, chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition, said: "I don't see any traction. The calls aren't coming in and I am not sure why." Some conservatives warn that the Christian leaders rallying behind the amendment may now face a loss of credibility. God forbid.
