“No. I haven’t seen enough changes since last November to bring about a different result. To have two defeats in California would make things even worse. I’d feel better with more preparation. Do it in 2012.”

“Yes, I think they need to stay on it. If the LGBT community shows any lapse or weakness, the conservative right wing will gain in strength. No victory can be guaranteed, but you have to make the effort.”

“No, that’s too soon. Organization is the key to success. It’s better to wait until 2012. By then, the 15-year-olds will be of voting age. Having more young people voting would bode well for success.”
