Am I a bad example, Steve Brown who is running for Democrat House In Mo. just stopped by......?

At least you gave him an amusing story about his door-to-door adventures. If he gets elected, you should contact him. I bet he'll remember you! Maybe you can be his liaison to the gay community. Seriously, it sounds like you proved how perfectly normal gay people are - they drink, their hair is a mess, their dogs get out. Plus,he's been going door-to-door. At least you were willing to talk to him and have him put up a sign. He had probably had more than one door slammed in his face.
