1. Awesome that a gay man elevates himself to the highest office in a pretty huge state -- Florida.
2. NOT awesome that he has to remain closeted.
3. NOT awesome that he espouses anti-gay policies, politically.
4. NOT awesome that he may have known about and covered up the Mark Foley scandal.
Charlie, we hardly knew ya! Come of the closet, switch parties, and be proud that you are a strong, gay man.
