No one knows. A local person losing a 23 year old gay daughter to suicide could convince more people than a lot of the other issues..

..Says people shouldn't vote for Moore who calls gay people perverts and an abomination...

The message of a father who lost a 23 year old daughter that Ray Moore would call "a pervert" could be more powerful than anything.

...and it is the truth.... and is very sad.
