Rainbow flags and Republicans

The Stream (Al Jazeera)

Same-sex marriage is now legal in 14 states. Just before it came into effect in New Jersey, Republican Governor Chris Christie quietly dropped his effort to stop those marriages. Some say this shows a GOP shift on gay rights. But, earlier this year, the party voted to keep its traditional marriage platform. So, is the GOP moving toward a “big tent” or sticking with socially conservative values? Join us at 7:30pm ET.
