Elizabeth Edwards supports gay marriage

Over the weekend at a gay pride event in San Francisco, Elizabeth Edwards said that she is "completely comfortable" with gay marriage (and that she doesn't see what anyone else's marriage has to do with her!) It's the first public statement supporting gay marriage from any campaign, as far as I know. Of course, she's not the actual candidate, and her husband hurried to reassert that he disagrees, but still, it's high profile support in the context of the presidential campaign, and that's a good thing.
