I fully credit Clinton for liberals winning the culture war. Obama's only a disappointment.
The Clinton who signed DOMA into law?
Yeah. For those of us who understand politics at even the most basic of levels, its pretty obvious that DOMA was a way to mitigate the proponents of a Federal Marriage Amendment (and it worked). Clinton came out for gay marriage before Obama, anyway, and didn't need to use a Vice President to cover his ass.

Don't forget DADT.
DADT was a
liberalization of the current law. Clinton actively campaigned on allowing gays serve openly in the military, but the compromise DADT was what Congress passed.
