All About McCain

[Gemini Cricket]

Trevor Potter, a former chair of the U.S. Federal Election Commission who is gay, is serving as the top lawyer for the presidential campaign of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.).

As the campaign’s general counsel, Potter has been identified by newspapers such as the New York Times and Washington Post as one of the nation’s most highly regarded experts on U.S. election laws. Potter has been credited with helping draft the McCain-Feingold Act, a bipartisan federal measure that reformed federal campaign finance laws.

But few mainline news outlets have reported on Potter’s other role as a high-level, openly gay adviser to McCain.

I don't understand this.
I know money is money, but the McCain camp is vehemently against marriage equality. In fact, Palin wants a Federal Marriage Amendment. Why work for someone who is working against you?
People like Potter and all the gay staffers that work for anti-gay Republicans and Democrats... I do not understand them...
