I think, sadly, 2012 it's still an overall net negative, but not one that would hurt his campaign all that much.  Marriage equality is, now, essentially a 50/50 issue.  It's nowhere near as good a wedge issue for the GOP as it was in 2004.

I think it's a pretty safe bet that the 2016 Democratic nominee will be unabashedly pro-marriage equality.

Considering Mexico already has de facto marriage equality (they have same sex marriage in Mexico City and marriages in Mexico City are valid throughout the rest of the country)...
