The Boston Globe reports that Richard Tisei will run alongside Gubernatorial Candidate, Charlie Baker.This race will interest me because, in the wake of the DNC's Oba-fiasco, there is a lot about Conservatism that is beginning to appeal to me.

Ya know. This (sanctity of marriage) is the one sticky wicket that keeps me from joining the Conservative movement. Oh, there are other things I don’t completely agree about. Like the “Right to Life” fanaticism. But, at least I *understand* how an intelligent person may want to extend Constitutional rights to a fertilized ovum. There is moral consistancy to the argument… whether I agree with it or not. KWIM?
But this whole thing about denying Constitutional rights to gay people is baffling. It does not really fit within a Conservative mindset. It’s a glaring inconsistancy that will need to be rectified before I can really jump on board…
