I have heard some negative comments, but most people I know have reacted positively. I consider myself to lean more on the conservative side politically, but I wouldn't vote for an amendment to the state constitution making marriage legal to heterosexual couples only.
I feel the same way, but realize that this is a huuuuuuuuge wedge issue. Republicans will do a really good job of getting the church vote out and this thing will pass with flying colors like it did in California. I think here in Oklahoma it passed with 70%+ of the vote. It was kind of embarrassing finding out what a bigoted state I live in.
