I'm not afraid of the Republicans anymore.

As I mentioned up-thread, my loyalty to the Democratic party is no longer going to be some altruistic exercise - one in which everyone gains at my expense.

I would caution Democrats not to take GLBT votes for granted. To dismiss us as narcissists would be the final arrogance of a party who wants our money and votes but offers nothing except the feable claim that they're better than the Republicans.
