Am I the only Dem who cares more about gun control than gay marriage?

Putting marriage equality at the forefront makes perfect political sense from the perspective of the administration and the national Democratic Party. It helps prevent base defections as Obama proposes to gut Social Security and Medicare, sell weapons to Syrian rebels, and enact NAFTA on steroids in the Pacific and with the Europeans. If Obama and the Democratic leadership weren't making such a fuss about it, naturally they'd have a much harder time selling Republican policies to the Democratic base. But all the above betrayals of working Americans matter little to the average liberal, who has given up fighting the administration and has at least since 2011 given in to an increasingly conservative administration that talks the talk but won't walk the walk. Obama will go to bat for a gun control bill, but won't go to bat for a far more important piece of legislation, like raising the minimum wage.
