Isn't it ironic?

Has anyone but me noticed that Obama won California by a land slide he received 6,308,161 votes; McCain received 3,849,431 yet Proposition 8 past with a vote of 5,387,939 to 4,883,460. Ummm… does anyone see the contradiction here? Those same people voting for Obama the man that supports gay rights also voted Yes to Proposition 8! This tells me one thing; they didn’t truly know Obama when they voted for him. I realize you don’t have to agree with your candidate 100% but it seems to me that anyone voting for the most liberal senator in US History would also be opposed to proposition 8. But hey, what do I know.
