While we lost so much in CA, AZ and FL, I believe society as a whole is progressing towards granting LGBT's equal status. Witness VT, CT and MA (and yes, I consider civil unions progress.) The wild card is Barack Obama. Let's see what the future brings. I think this year would be a vertical flat palm (neither thumbs up or down.)

Prop 8 was voted in and some new antigay constitutional amendments and continued inequality as we all know. A few bright spots like gay marriage passing in Connecticut (CT) and voters there turned down a chance to rewrite CT's constitution, thus sparing CT gay marriage from being replaced with a ban on it. Gay couples could start marrying in CT on November 12th. Norway passed its gay marriage law in 2008 to go into effect in 2009. 2008 is a mixed bag.
