favor legalizing same sex marriages and would fight efforts to prohibit such marriages. so either this is the first ever case of reverse evolution or the president's more recent statements are a mere political calculation, which let's be real, we kind of knew, and he knows we kind of knew, which is why he was hoping we would let him keep it going until after the november elections. problem is political double talk is still just double talk, or to put it another way, rightr now the president is walking a political tightrope. the question tonight is it better to step off gracefully or be pushed? anita? >> thank you, derrick. to watch the segment again or leave a comment, head to wusa9.com and click on features. also in the political arena, we understand that former gop candidate rick santorum has now endorsed mitt romney as the gop candidate for president. switching gears. flashing. that used to ñixdxdñoeñ.kb
