The Future Of Gay Politics

Jonathan Bernstein wonders about it:

Will the LGBT community wind up like African Americans, Jews, and Mormons? Each of those groups, it seems to me, has remained politically identified through their ethnicity (in the first and perhaps second case) or their religion (in the third and perhaps second case), and therefore has stayed bound to one party.  Or will they be like, I don't know, the Irish — moving away from their current political identity to other identities, and therefore identifying with parties for other reasons?
