Santorum Still Comparing Homosexuality to Polygamy

Anti-gay remarks draw some boos from audience of New Hampshire college Republicans.

Santorum has long favored a constitutional amendment to define marriage as between one man and one woman. That stance was once a surefire way to motivate the Republican base, but with a majority of Americans now in support of gay marriage, some wonder whether it will hurt Santorum’s presidential chances. From the Los Angeles Times:

Santorum's conservative views played well among Iowa's Republican electorate, but New Hampshire's GOP base is more moderate. (Both states have legalized same-sex marriage.) But even in Iowa, he was asked about the issue and he'll likely face further questions as long as he remains in the race. The antipathy between Santorum and the gay community is well known, having been manifested, for one thing, in his "Google problem" (which we're not going to get into).
