Lee Fisher was firmly opposed to gay marriage when he ran for LG in 2006. Now, his position on the issue is much less clear, and he refuses to talk about it.
Lee Fisher was also firmly opposed to the death penalty. That was until his 1998 run for Governor, when his positioned changed.
Lee Fisher is an honorable man. But, he is also a typical establishment politician. As Democrats, we have learned that nominating a candidate that seems electable because of their moderate positions doesn't work if those are not their genuine beliefs (think: John Kerry). We need a nominee that is firm in her advocacy of bold, progressive change.
