When running for the GOP ticket, in the initial stages when several competitors are present, gay bashing is very important, because it is one of GOP voters' top concerns (in addition to Muslim and Latino bashing).
However, now that romney's biggest competitor has left, will romney have to dispense with the "gay marriage will destroy the whole country" rhetoric? After all, he needs all votes to win, not just the bigoted (rightwing) ones.
Or should he stay consistent to keep his right wing base happy?
