Will he be the first openly gay Republican elected to Congress?

Richard Tisei is vying for a House seat in Massachusetts. He's a Republican - and openly gay. He would be the first Republican to successfully win election to Congress as a gay man.

It's really tempting to complacently look at 2012 MA 6th district election and say the best person on the ballot won; the system worked.
The truth is we got lucky. Very lucky.
Richard Tisei working on behalf of the chamber of commerce to replace citizens with guest workers will mean lower wages for U.S. citizens in his district and across the nation.
