First, I would note that most pollsters are very wary of the volatile of
opinions on this issue, and don't consider polling on this issue to be all
that reliable.
Secondly, this poll is, in fact, of a related question - but a related
question that I think does produce a decent proxy..... Anyhow;
Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling - The
issue of same-sex marriage?
