Today’s gay marriage debate in New Jersey may be taking center stage, but the fallout from last Wednesday’s same sex marriage bill defeat is landing squarely on the eight Democratic Senators who voted “nay.”
Via Joe.My.God, Joe Addabo is at the top of the list:
“Queens Democrat Joseph Addabo (above) is the number one target. Some of the more powerful and wealthy among the eight traitorous Democrats are considered beyond the reach of equality activists. That would include Sen. Ruben Diaz (Bronx) and Sen. Carl Kruger (Brooklyn).”
Over at Queerty, the list is a bit longer:
“So who’s at risk of gay activist ire in the 2010 race? Any Dem who voted no — since they’re all up for re-election. But then there’s a special class of “no” voters that will receive the majority of activists’ attention: those who indicated they’d support gay marriage, only to shoot it down. That means Sens. Hiram Monserrate, Carl Kruger (the maybe gay), Shirley Huntley, George Onorato, and Sen. Bill Stachowski.  And of course there’s Enemy No. 1: Sen. Joe Addabbo…”
New York Magazine’s Daily Intel gets a big and hearty, “Touché!” for this gem:
“Sen. Roy McDonald of Saratoga, for example, claims he voted against marriage equality because he’s “focusing [his] time on the things that the public wants [him] to do.” Strange — we didn’t realize saying “yes” was so much more time-consuming than saying ‘no.'”
